Upper Body: Neck Pain, Arm Pain

After years of suffering from back pain and two herniated discs,

I found Dr. Chung. He changed my life! After his therapy all my back problems are gone. Of course I don’t abuse my new condition but I have a perfect normal life again.

I went to Dr. Young Chung at NUCCA Wellness due to having numbness in my arms while sleeping.

As a result, the numbness has gone, my problems with vertigo have subsided and my energy level has increased. I highly recommend him!

My parents have been going here for years and I have struggled with neck pain for about a decade.

I was skeptical of the methods and the X-ray machine from the 1980s.  Before this, I had tried everything you can think of… countless traditional chiropractors, muscle manipulation, massage, you name it. It took about 6 months but now feeling better than ever.  I had pretty much given up and thought I just had to live with pain, but not the case at all.  Totally worth it!

The pain is gone, my depression has much improved and I am no longer constipated

I could never have imagined the extent of the benefits I would get from NUCCA Wellness Care!

My physical and mental well-being has markedly improved over the last two months or so since I had the NUCCA procedure done. I feel I have begun a process of healing that will continue for a long time. This is one of the best things I have ever done to take care of myself. Dr. Young Chung did an incredible job and really educated me about the procedure and how it affects one’s body. He talked about the purpose of his care as helping his patients to achieve a better balance and resilience, starting with the nervous system, rather than directly trying to relieve their symptoms in ways that further debilitate the body. I am a fifty-year-old woman who has been experiencing a decline in physical and mental well-being over the past several years. I found out that a research study had been done at the University of Chicago that showed that a chiropractic procedure was beneficial in helping reduce blood pressure significantly. I obtained the name of Dr. Young Chung. Dr. Chung offered me a free consultation about the procedure and I saw him a few days later. I thought I could potentially benefit from the procedure so Dr. Chung performed it on me a few days later. I am very pleased with the results of having had my atlas vertebra adjusted by Dr. Chung. The procedure itself was simple, painless and non-invasive. Dr. Chung took his time to explain everything in detail every step of the way. He fully answered my questions and continues to do so in my follow-up appointments. After the procedure was done by Dr. Chung, I felt the effects immediately and they have continued on. I have felt a great lessening of anxiety and physical tension, particularly in my neck and chest. I have been sleeping better. A long-term problem I have had with swallowing has been noticeably relieved. I have slowly been decreasing the amount of blood pressure medication I take and my blood pressure has stayed in the normal range generally. I am very grateful to Dr. Chung and those who have created this kind of health care.

Atlas – Carrier of the world

I was recommended this treatment by a friend for whom it had been very supportive. When she described it to me it made total sense that the atlas vertebrae -the carrier of the whole world of the physical body- when adjusted would address many layers of the human being, not only physically but also soul and possibly spirit/mind consciousness. Because as baby I had fallen of the changing table; as a 11 year old I fell head first from a monkey bar (still have that scar on my scalp..); falling of horses and bikes etc. I thought that some residue of the above mentioned spills gave me a feeling of not being straight or balanced in the right/left planes enough; of feeling thick on the left side of neck when I turned it; my right leg was “longer” than the left; of having tightness in my back; at times I had the sense that I could not remember well; I would wake up at night with numbness in left hand and sometimes also in my foot. I had the need constantly to crack my lower back; crack my neck; and feeling the rib that never stayed in place though I faithfully went to a great chiropractor ( and it stayed in place for a time but then kind of popped out).So I decided to invest in this treatment and observe where it would lead me.After a very thorough examination Dr. Chung applied pressure on my atlas. Afterwards I experienced my left side as expanded beyond the physical and then later on the muscles started to be painful as they had to learn to let go of the unhealthy imbalance they had taken on support my uprightness. I also experienced slight flu like symptoms, however, Dr. Chung had given a very clear and outlined explanation of not only how the treatment worked but also the physical effects after the first adjustment so I felt confident in the less comfortable experiences which lasted only for a short time. Now, a few months later, I feel my legs are even; when I walk this is very apparent as well as when I sit; my neck on the left side feels fluid and free; I am getting strength back into both left arm and leg which had had to compensate for the imbalance; the numbness is not there anymore; I feel more upright and is able to hold my back straighter without tiredness; my popped-out rib is bothering me less and less.

I will soon have my 6th visit to ensure I hold my balanced uprightness which was already showing in the 5th visit without any other adjustments ever done ( I just had one done!). The encouragement to come back for check ups proves to me the seriousness and consciousness of Dr.Chung’s professionalism for each patients full well being of proper alignment.

Thanks to my friend who recommended Dr.Chung and thanks Dr.Chung for recognizing the importance of the ATLAS, the portal to that which houses so many treasures, our brain and nervous sense system and the beginning of our true uprightness.

Warm Greetings,

I was diagnosed with scoliosis when I was in high school. It was not bad enough to need surgery, but it was bad enough to limit my life.
