Beyond the Neck: How the Blair Technique Impacts Your Entire Body
Introduction When people think of chiropractic care, they often picture someone getting their back or neck “cracked” for quick relief. But at Balanced Chiropractic, located right here in Riverton, Utah, we do things differently. The Blair Technique we use focuses on the top bones of the neck through a gentle, highly precise method that supports the health of your entire body. And no—there’s no twisting or cracking involved (your neck will thank you! ).
What Is the Blair Technique? The Blair Technique is a specialized form of upper cervical chiropractic care. It focuses on correcting misalignments in the top bones of the neck that can disrupt brain-body communication. Instead of forceful twisting or popping, we use advanced CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) imaging to understand the exact position of your cervical vertebrae. This lets us tailor a custom, gentle correction just for you—without the drama of traditional adjustments.
The Brain-Body Connection Starts at the Top Your brainstem, the command center for many of your body’s vital functions, sits right where your skull meets your spine. Misalignments in this area can interfere with your nervous system’s ability to communicate with the rest of your body. Kind of like a kink in a garden hose—you don’t need a new hose, you just need to straighten it out.

Real-Life Relief in Riverton, Utah One of our Riverton patients came in struggling with chronic neck pain and dizziness. After CBCT imaging revealed a subtle misalignment at the top of her neck, we applied a Blair correction. Not only did her neck pain improve, but her brain fog and balance got significantly better. It’s not magic—it’s just what happens when the body can finally talk to itself again.
Why This Matters for You Many people live with symptoms they think are unrelated or just “normal”—like fatigue, poor sleep, or digestive trouble. But sometimes, the real cause is hiding at the top of the spine. At Balanced Chiropractic, we help people across Riverton, South Jordan, Herriman, Draper, and the surrounding Salt Lake County area get to the root of their symptoms gently and precisely. (We’re like neck detectives—but without the trench coats.)
