Discover true health, true stability, and true vitality.

Have you tried a number of medical and alternative approaches without results? The gentle, precise and effective treatments we offer at True Spine Chiropractic may provide the relief you’ve been seeking.

Upper Cervical Care

At our practice in Bend, Oregon we specialize in upper cervical care, with a focus on the NUCCA technique—a gentle, non-invasive approach to realigning your spine and restoring full-body health. 

NUCCA or (‘new-ka’) stands for the National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association and is a highly effective chiropractic technique that specializes in the alignment between the head and neck—with no twisting, popping or cracking to the neck.

What is NUCCA Chiropractic?

  • "I have had a lot of conventional chiropractic in my life due to my career as a skydiving instructor. It usually helped with pain symptoms but did not correct my spine curvature or leg length difference. I was treated by Dr. Hallmeyer for a little over a year (before I moved out of Bend a week ago) and saw more improvement and increased stability under his care than I did from any of my other chiropractic care. And this improvement came without the sometimes violent adjustments that frequently left me sore for a couple of days after the adjustment. Dr. Hallmeyer is attentive, personable and exudes a real passion for NUCCA and patient care. NUCCA is really different, maybe even weird, if you are used to regular chiropractic adjustments. My advice would be to give it 3 or 4 months and I would bet you will become a convert, as I have."

  • "I can’t begin to express how grateful we were to find Dr. Hallmeyer! He treated both my wife and I with incredible results. His style of chiropractic medicine, called NUCCA, sounds strange at first. How could you possibly fix my lower back and hips by adjusting ONE joint in my neck? But I promise, it really works! After about 3-4 of his gentle adjustment sessions, my lower back pain was gone, my leg lengths had equalized, and I could work out again without pain or fear of reinjury. That’s when we began to space my sessions out as planned. Dr. Hallmeyer’s goal is to cure you, not keep you coming back forever for weekly adjustments. Not only is his practice extremely effective, but he’s such a nice guy, that I always looked forward to my visits with him. His model is effective, reasonably priced, and honest. I give him all the stars!"

  • "Dr. Hallmeyer has been such a blessing to me. As someone who was completely new to chiropractic care, all my expectations were surpassed. I was referred to him by my dentist for persistent jaw pain. Dr. Hallmeyer spent so much time and attention going over my diagnosis, what chiropractic care could do, and performing all the preliminary assessments. The day after my first appointment, the jaw pain I had been dealing with for 10+ years was completely gone. 3 appointments later and people have commented on how nice my posture is. It feels so great to be pain free and living life to the fullest, laughing, eating, talking, and yawning with no clicking or popping. I look forward to every appointment!"

    —Kandace G.

  • "Dr. Hallmeyer is professional, kind, and caring. He made sure I actually needed treatment and that I understood exactly what the treatment would entail. The alignment was very gentle and precise. In addition to having my neck and jaw feel better, my whole back feels better. Starting at the top and getting your head straight really does put everything else in alignment!"

    —Kay L.

  • "Dr Hallmeyer cares about improving his patients’ overall condition. I've been a chronic headache sufferer for 30 years, I also have chronic tick borne issues, but he has improved my overall quality of life. My headaches are less severe and seem to be improving steadily. He's exact in what he does, very much a perfectionist. He also isn't one of the chiropractors who wants you to come back all the time, he wants you to get better and enjoy your life."
