What Is The Safest Treatment For C1 Subluxation?
I had three strokes at the end of March due to DNA high cholesterol. Prior to that I was receiving NUCCA adjustments for c1 atlas sublaxation. Now my neurologist suggests I do not get another nucca adjustment as it could cause a stroke. What is the safest treatment for c1 sublaxation in your opinion?

Hello,
Conservative treatment will be useful. If there are neurological deficits, surgical fixation may be required. Consult a spine surgeon and he will direct you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
