To all those with high blood pressure you might be interested in a study performed by the Department of Preventive Medicine at the Rush University Hypertension Center in Chicago. In this study they had a chiropractor perform what is know as an Atlas adjustment to the first cervical vertebra and study the effects over 8 weeks.  Apparently, this adjustment may reduce pressure on the arteries in the neck causing dramatic reductions in blood pressure.

The adjustment is supposed to be safe and very gentle so I might just give it a try.

Here is a link to the original study  plus the webmd article.
