The Precision Spinal Care facility in Fort Collins came to my attention through a friend. After accompanying the friend to her appointment with Dr. Wehr and learning more about the NUCCA procedure I started thinking about the leg pains I have had for a year and the occasional shoulder and back of the neck muscle fatigue I experienced. I had tried various things for the leg cramps according to what “they say” may cause them. I increased calcium, changed type and brand in case my body was not utilizing what I was using. I increased my water consumption to make sure I was not dehydrating. I have been exercising three days per week for one hour for more than a year so felt my muscles should be toned. I also had a pain deep in my hip. My thoughts about that were that it was probably related to a fall I took while skiing when I was 30 years old and now that my bones are ageing it was giving me some problems. I as waking up several times during the night with leg cramps and my hip aching.
I thought about the discussion with Dr. Wehr of the NUCCA procedure for several weeks and the more I thought about it the more it sounded like a good idea to have an exam and x-ray of my upper cervical to see if that might be a part of my problem. That was a wise decision. After one treatment my leg pain was gone and as a bonus so was my hip pain. I slept through the night without waking in need of a more comfortable position. My shoulder and neck discomfort was gone. When I turned my head from side to side it seems to move more freely. I had also experienced difficulty looking up. The back of my neck just seemed too stiff to look directly overhead. After just two weeks, that has also improved. My neck is just more comfortable.
The procedure is so gentle it just seems improbable that it can change so much from head to toe. I am so grateful to be healing naturally. I am a 69 year old female and was not ready to be slowed down by pain and lack of stamina.

Hi All!
I have started this letter several times and sounded like a late night TV commercial “ Let me tell you about the Latest, Greatest thingy to hit backs!” really though there is no getting around it so here it is. NUCCA adjustments have made a world of difference for me. I had a bout with rheumatic fever in 1997, and have suffered from lower back pain and frequent leg pain as a result. I grew up riding horses; I have trained horses and taught riders for a number of years. I wish I had a dime for every spill or smash that invariably happen when you combine people and horses. I have been downhill skiing since I was 8; trees were a challenge for me in the beginning. These are just a minutes worth of contemplating, think about water skiing, repelling, spills on bikes or motorcycles, gymnastics, powderpuff football, etc. So as you can see when we think back on the damage we cause ourselves no wonder we hurt. I had been to a traditional chiropractor and he told me the problem was in my hips. When this other Doctor adjusted me it was painful and brought very little relief. Not to mention the supplements they want to sell me, the little electric shock thing… no thank you.
I started seeing Dr. Huff in April of 2002 and I noticed improvement after the first visit, once I got over the feeling of being beat up. I could not understand how, seemingly, so little pressure could make so much difference. I wish I could tell you that I am pain free but my injuries are old and I have a hard time with some of Dr. Huff’s suggestions regarding posture and sleeping flat on my stomach. (OK so I am weak and like my comfort zones) I don’t have to go as often and Dr Huff has taught me to know when I need to come in for an adjustment, and that it is ok to come in just to get a check.
Just a short list of areas of improvement: hip pain, leg pain, lower back pain. The burning pain between my shoulders- gone, elbow pain from rheumatic fever damage gone, headaches greatly reduced. The help with acid reflux was faster than Tums!
I recently went through a trying time with a family member who was dying of cancer. I spent 5 long days and nights sitting in bad chairs, sleeping an floors and hide-a-beds and I managed to come out of it with-out the pain I would have expected.
As much as the treatment itself, the caring attitude and genuine concern for my well-being has made an impact on me. Dr Wher has filled in while Dr Huff was taking classes and I would also like to mention how comfortable and confident I felt in his care.
One last thing I would like to mention, I am proud to know a young professional man who is also a strong Christian and happy to tell you so. Dr Huff was a blessing to me in the weeks I dealt with my brother death, even coming in on his day off to help with legs pains I had started having after a couple of stressed filled weeks. Thank you.

I thank God everyday for leading me to Dr. Huff. I suffered for years with back, leg and neck pain. It got to the point where I could not get out of bed or up from a chair without help. I also had ringing in my ears and walking became almost impossible.
A friend told me about Dr. Huff and NUCCA. Well, I was very skeptical at first, but then the thought of having no pain won over my skepticism. After my first treatment, I had no neck pain what so ever. I rested for 15 minutes and then went back in for my second treatment. My back pain and the pain in my leg were gone and for the first time in years I was able to lay down and sit up by myself. I could kneel on the floor and get up with no help, it was the most wonderful feeling. Another benefit! The ringing in my ears is almost gone.
My daughter and husband both go to Dr. Huff now and are enjoying the benefits of NUCCA.
Belief in God and the hands of Dr. Huff have made a new person out of me. You don’t have to live in pain. I know, because I am now pain free and living a happier and healthier life.
Thank you Dr. Huff and NUCCA for coming into our lives.
