After 17 years of tackling social issues and interviewing ordinary
people dealing with extraordinary circumstances, the Emmy-winning talk show host is featuring his most personal story,…that changed his life:
MS & Upper Cervical Atlas Correction.

 “ I want to tell you I suffer from MS (multiple sclerosis), I have extreme neuralgic pain in the lower extremities, I'm in pain 24 hours a day seven days a week 365 days a year, and then I go to see this doctor, I've had pain in my feet,
I've struggled with my balance, so Dr. Erica set me to see a man who I will tell you now, 12 days ago... and there's not a person that knows me who will not confirm this, if you just ask them, everybody who sees me, I am walking differently, my pain is less, I have already regained strength in my left leg, my left leg has dropped because I found out that my pelvis was tilted, it's dropped back down, they are now the same length, it's the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me”

"As a practicing clinician I find it vital to the healing process to recognize that the upper atlas/axis complex serves as a vital interface between the head and body. Every single nerve in the spinal cord below the skull passes through the foramen magnum. The atlas being the vertebra with the least ligamentous support, as well as being influenced by ocular, masticatory and auditory dysfunction often becomes subluxed, resulting in loss of an optimal instantaneous axis of rotation during normal head and body movements. This results in compression, torsion and sheer forces being transmitted to the cord via the dentate ligaments. The effect of such subluxation is alteration of ascending and descending information in relevant cord tracts, frequently producing pain and dysfunction at sites distant to the etiology, such as low back pain, hip pain, knee pain, foot/ankle pronation and a number of seemingly unrelated symptoms in the domain of the cranial nerves, which are routinely treated with drugs by allopathic practitioners." "Having an extensive background in the treatment of head, neck and jaw disorders, orthopedic disorders and the conditioning of world class athletes, as well has having worked very closely with NUCCA doctors I have been able to coordinate and facilitate the recovery of not one or two, but literally HUNDREDS of patients that had seemingly hit a dead end in their road to recovery!" "For those of you wanting to facilitate a complete recovery of any patient, friend, relative, or even yourself, I strongly suggest an evaluation by a NUCCA doctor. Until you have a fully functional upper cervical spine, your rehabilitation program is far from complete!"
