While NUCCA is a well-accepted form of chiropractic, patient procedures differ from the more traditional techniques. NUCCA treatment begins with specific x-ray views taken from specialized digital x-ray equipment that uses very minimal radiation.
The positional relationship between the top bones in the spine named the Atlas, the skull, and the rest of the neck below the Atlas are analyzed to measure the exact degree of the misalignment for each patient.Each person's misalignment pattern is entirely unique to them. Lastly a NUCCA adjustment is very gentle, precise, and an effective treatment that does not use twisting, cracking, or high force to realign the spine and improve body function.

Complete a brief questionnaire to help us get to know you. The doctor will use this information to make recommendations for your care. You can also download, print, and fill out this questionnaire now and bring it with you if you prefer. You'll meet the doctor who will review your health history and determine if yours is a chiropractic case.
Your first visit is complete. Plan to spend about 45-60 minutes on your next visit to receive the doctor's report of findings and chiropractic adjustment. We will then do another set of post X-rays after your first NUCCA adjustment. You will recieve your very first NUCCA adjustment. About 50% of people will immediately feel a difference.
The first stage of your care is relief. During this stage our goal is to get you out of pain and to break up the muscle memory that is holding your spine in the wrong position. During this phase of treatment you will generally see your doctor 2 times per week. You can expect to be completely or almost completely out of pain by the end of your relief phase.
Well I only went for one appointment and never got adjusted so not sure if I can give you proper data. I have been attending Symtery Health chiropractic for 4 to 5 years now and I am happy with the way that I've been treated I look forward to going in every month and I always feel great when I leave.

Before coming to Symmetry, I had multiple sports and vehicular accident related injuries that had inhibited my range of movement for years. Over the course of multiple adjustments and massages, I’ve been given my mobility back and love every second of it! The front desk was very friendly and helped orient me on the services they offer. The doctors were equally helpful and very experienced at their craft. With the help of Symmetry Chiropractic, I’m able to once again have the mobility to play with my kids and grandkids.

I cannot recommend enough. I have had lower back and hip alignment problems for years that have affected my ability to sleep, do physical activities, etc. A friend recommended this business to me. I am first to admit I have have always been skeptical of chiropractic services but decided it could not hurt to try (2016). All I can say is WOW! I went from tossing and turning every single night for years (back pain) to full night sleep after three sessions. In 2019 I took a bad fall and messed up my hip. I did not return to Symmetry until now (big mistake to wait so long). But like before I am instantly

I've done chiropractic care many different times in my life-- often it's been what we all know what chiropractic to be, "crack CRack CRACK!" HOWEVER, it's different here at Symmetry--using a technique called Nucca, where light, gentle touches on the neck spine helps the body to do its job in healing itself. At first, I was skeptical about it but with each treatment my husband and I can feel its effects. After each treatment we get very tired--a sign of the body working to heal in response to the treatments. We get our treatments from Dr. Roy Kim-- he patiently answers all questions and concerns

I have been coming here for a few years now. The staff is awesome! I was having some major headache issues and came to see Dr. Pat. I felt a major difference after my first visit. I highly recommend Symmetry Health. They take the time to listen to you and I always feel that I am important and not just a number.

Really recommend symmetry chiropractic - the staff is always friendly and helpful.
Dr . Kim has magical abilities. I’ve always been skeptical of these kinds of treatment but I was in so much pain, I gave it a try. I had zero expectations going in but Dr. Kim did wonders for my back pain.
I highly recommend Symmetry Heath Chiropractic!

I started my care in September. They are very professional and caring staff. I feel like they do a good job listening me when explaining my symptoms. They then try hard to make sure they give me the appropriate treatment. I am excited to see what type of results I will get as I continue my treatments.

NUCCA Chiropractic is a very specific way to address neck and back issues. Dr. Patrick Lin and Dr. Dani Lin have been doing this for a long time and they know their stuff. They are also kind, compassionate doctors who care about their patients' wellbeing. I highly recommend them and their practice (Symmetry Health). Go see them!

My 11 y/o daughter hit her face on the bottom of a pool this summer & started having debilitating migraine like headaches. Dr Pat assessed & fixed what was wrong in 1 treatment & she had immediate relief & has been headache free ever since! Words cannot express my appreciation & admiration for Dr Pat & Dr Dani. LOVE!!
