Leg Length Inequality

06/16/2023 - "Upper cervical chiropractic care has been mentioned as a possible solution OBJECTIVE: To determine the effects of Atlas Orthogonal upper cervical chiropractic technique adjustments on trigeminal neuralgia sufferers DESIGN: Case series SETTING: A private chiropractic practice PARTICIPANTS: Five persons with chronic, severe, daily trigeminal neuralgia pain, radiological findings of significant head tilt, pain upon upper cervical palpation, and supine leg length inequality INTERVENTIONS: Up to two consultations and/or Atlas Orthogonal adjustments a week for eight weeks OUTCOME MEASURES: Self-reported reduction in trigeminal neuralgia pain and changes in radiological findings, sensitivity to upper cervical palpation, and leg length inequality RESULTS: Four participants reported reduced trigeminal neuralgia pain, including two with complete cessation of pain.
