Welcome to the birthplace of the National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association (NUCCA)!

Our mission is to offer an unparalleled level of excellence in providing our unique care.

The office of Dr. Keith Denton and Dr. Teresa Palmer is the former office of Dr. Ralph Gregory, the founder of the National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association (NUCCA - 1966) and the National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Research Association (NUCCRA - 1971). Dr. Keith Denton and Dr. Teresa Palmer are Board Certified (1985) by NUCCA and practice in strict accordance with the standards of Dr. R. R. Gregory and NUCCA standards of practice.

NUCCA has developed a highly advanced procedure that is an extremely precise and gentle technique unlike any other kind of chiropractic care. NUCCA chiropractic addresses mechanical spinal injuries (trauma) primarily in the neck and head region. These injuries cause neurological, postural, and spinal imbalances.

The tool of the NUCCA doctor is the upper cervical adjustment. The purpose of the adjustment is to mechanically return the head and neck to its normal position. By returning the head and neck to its balanced position, neurological stress is reduced and body posture is returned to normal.

Each patient’s chiropractic adjustment experience and healing response is unique. One thing is universal: the light touch of the adjustment will set your body in the direction for achieving optimum health.
