<p>From <a href="http://www.virginiahopkinstestkits.com/chiropractorbloodpressure.html" target="_blank">Virginia Hopkins Health Watch</a>:</p>
<p><strong>University of Chicago research shows that adjusting the atlas works as  well or better than drugs at lowering blood pressure.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Q:</strong> I heard on Good Morning America that a chiropractor can  lower blood pressure. I&#8217;d love to stop taking my blood pressure drugs because  they make me tired. Please tell me whether this is true and if it is, how to  find a chiropractor who can do it.</p>
<p><strong>A:</strong> There is indeed a good double-blind, placebo-controlled  study done at the University of Chicago and published in a respectable journal  (Journal of Human Hypertension 03/02/09) to back up this claim. The adjustment  used in the study is of the atlas vertebrae (C-1), which is located at the top  of the neck, and is a very specific and precise technique done by a group called  the <a href="http://www.nucca.org/">National Upper Cervical Chiropractic  Association</a> (NUCCA). You can locate a chiropractor in your area who does the  technique on the website.</p>
<p>The study, which examined 50 people with a misaligned C-1 and high blood  pressure, found that those who got the adjustment had a very significant drop  in blood pressure equal to taking two blood pressure-lowering drugs.</p>
<p>There are undoubtedly other chiropractic techniques that can adjust the  atlas, but the NUCCA has gone to the trouble of doing a well-designed study to  test the efficacy of their technique for lowering blood pressure, and that  deserves a lot of respect.</p>
<p>While it&#8217;s important to control blood pressure, conventional medical  treatment relies almost exclusively on drugs. Although these drugs are very  effective at lowering blood pressure, their side effects make them risky, and  many people taking them experience a drop in their quality of life. Excessively  low blood pressure can cause fatigue, confusion, foggy thinking, and dizziness  that can result in falls.</p>
<p>Please don&#8217;t rely on a chiropractic adjustment alone to reduce blood  pressure. There are many simple, effective and safe ways to lower blood  pressure. For details, please read <a href="bloodpressure.html">What Your Doctor  May Not Tell You about Blood Pressure</a> by Dr. John Lee. For details on the  side effects of specific blood pressure drugs, please read <a href="prescriptionalt.html">Prescription Alternatives</a>.</p>
