[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 575180, member: 3419"] Hi Nomad, I don't have to ask him. I know. He thinks it's hooey. ;) It's just one adjustment, that any chiro can do. Of course, an Atlas practictioner would get all over my case for saying that ... I just don't see how they can stay in biz doing one adjustment all day long. It certainly wouldn't hurt to have your neck adjusted, but I'd go for all of the certical vertebrae, not just one. in my humble opinion. (See, if it's only my opinion, husband won't get in trouble for criticizing another chiro; I'm the one typing this.) The nerves to C1 are not the same as facial nerves, particulary trigeminal nerve 5, which has three major divisions: the ophthalmic nerve (V[SUB][SIZE=2]1[/SIZE][/SUB]), the maxillary nerve (V[SUB][SIZE=2]2[/SIZE][/SUB]), and the mandibular nerve (V[SUB][SIZE=2]3[/SIZE][/SUB]). (I had a little help from Wikipedia. :)) Also, one item I found online says that it may be due not just to the nerve, but to an enlarged blood vessel that is pressing on the nerve. Definitely, find a good acupuncturist with-experience in this issue. Many gentle hugs. I know it's awful. [/QUOTE]
