A Compassionate Path to Recuperation
At the Upper Cervical Spine Center, we understand the critical nature of concussion care. Our approach treats both the immediate symptoms and the underlying neck injuries that often accompany concussions, ensuring a comprehensive recovery strategy.
Get Back to A Full Recovery from Concussions
Living with a concussion can feel like navigating an obstacle course in the dark.
You're dealing with a flood of confusing symptoms like headaches, dizziness, blurry vision, sleep issues, and emotional instability. You're tired, you're foggy, and you can't concentrate like you used to. Even scarier, these symptoms might not show up right away, taking up to 48 hours to manifest.
At Upper Cervical Spine Center, we're here to guide you out of the fog. We understand that a concussion isn't just a headache - it's a serious brain injury that demands proper care, especially during the critical first 7 - 10 days after the incident. We know that it's not just athletes who can suffer concussions, but anyone who has experienced a hit to the head or body. And we're familiar with the ripple effects of a concussion, which can include an underlying neck injury.
In the face of a concussion, you might be told to rest. But what does 'resting' a brain mean? We'll tell you: It means avoiding physical and mental activity as though you're nursing a sprained ankle. Your brain needs an abundance of energy to heal - and returning to work, school, or physical activities too soon is like going for a run on a sprained ankle. It only delays the healing process.
Your Journey to Optimal Health Begins Here
Our Upper Cervical Chiropractors can be your guide through this murky recovery period, helping you stabilize and balance your neck to facilitate optimal brain-body communication. They will guide you step-by-step, from the necessary rest and time restrictions to gradually reintegrating activities like reading, schoolwork, and finally, a full return to work or school with no restrictions.
At each step, we will assess your symptoms and readiness to proceed. If any symptoms reappear, we will help you return to the previous step, ensuring you do not rush the recovery. Our holistic, patient-centered approach will address not just the symptoms, but the root causes of your concussion to facilitate a comprehensive recovery.
It's important to remember that your brain's recovery may not always align with how you feel. That's why we monitor your recovery carefully, adjusting the plan as necessary and making sure you don't take unnecessary risks that could further jeopardize your health.
Don't navigate the fog of a concussion alone. Reach out to our Upper Cervical Spine Centers in Charlotte, Wilmington, or Nashville, and let us guide you to a safe, successful recovery. With our support, you can reclaim your health and return to the life you love. Book an appointment today for a consultation and begin your journey towards recovery.

Healed from horrible accident
While traveling I was convinced to see a chiropractor. A kind of "you deserve this" kind of convincing since I was on a vacation.
After a quick search I decided to give them a shot. They took X-Rays of my neck and showed me I had some nerves being messed up by my neck due to the accident.
Got set up for an appointment and I got to enjoy the rest of my vacation with full feeling in my fingers and no neck pain.
The service provided gave me a unique renewal on life and showed me that a small investment can truly redefine how you feel; you're worth it! Can't thank them enough!I
Couldn't fall asleep on the airplane on the way down, but on the way back I was able to grab some sleep!
Absolutely tremendous experience, the staff is beyond accommodating, and extremely knowledgeable.
I'd encourage anyone to consider them, local or not.

Healed from Motor Vehicle Accident
First off, I have to say his staff is not only kind and extremely friendly but they are also very helpful. His office is clean and simple. I could write step by step what the whole process was but that's to much to explain. What I know is that this is NOT a normal chiropractor, he is upper cervical... VERY different!! He is extremely educated, and answers all of your questions. Even after talking to him I still thought this makes complete sense, yet didn't know if it would work for me! This has ruled my life for 3yrs! Ok, ok, I'm trying to get to my point!! There is so much I could write about Dr. Drury being a man of integrity or faith and purpose but instead I guess I will just end with this...
I have been seizure and headache free for the entire time I started going to him. This has not happened in 3yrs!! The months prior to seeing him so was having 2-4 seizures a week and everyday migraines!! This works, it absolutely works. It's the hidden secret of healthcare in my opinion and more people should be trying things like this than pretty medicine over and over in your body. I highly recommend trying this for any health issues you may be having.
Call his staff and talk to them, that's the place to start!! And don't forget to Expect Miracles!!!
