Welcome to Redmond Spinal Care

Dr. Timothy O. McFadden, NUCCA Chiropractor of Redmond, Washington

Redmond Chiropractor Dr. Tim McFadden studies an x-ray.

Our NUCCA chiropractic office is located in Redmond, Washington. I am a member of NUCCA (National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association).  The NUCCA technique is a gentle form of chiropractic care focusing on lasting results in fewer visits, even if you've been told to "live with it".

Mastered by fewer than 150 doctors world-wide, NUCCA is a gentle, safe and specific chiropractic technique that corrects and balances the spinewithout any twisting or turning of the head, neck or back. The correction takes pressure off the spinal nerves by realigning the spine, allowing the entire body to re-balance and begin healing. Because the spinal column protects the central nervous system that controls and coordinates all body functions, good spinal balance is critical to good health. Read more information about why NUCCA Chiropractic care is so effective.

 

What is Fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia is a chronic (long term) condition that can be very disabling.  It's characterized by extreme fatigue and widespread body aches that affect the body's soft tissues (the muscles, ligaments, and tendons).  Tender points most commonly occur in base of the skull, the back, neck, shoulders, lower back, thighs, hands, hips, and knees.

NUCCA Chiropractic Treatment & Migraine Headaches

NUCCA chiropractic can help provide migraine pain relief by alleviating any misalignments in the vertebrae of the upper cervical pine (upper neck). These misalignments cause irritation to the nerves traveling between the brain and spinal cord and to the blood vessels traveling to the head. Nerve irritation and altered blood flow has been directly associated with migraines. By correcting the vertebrae in the upper neck, normal nerve and blood flow is returned and many patients suffering from migraine headache pain are able to get long term relief from their symptoms.

 


I have had daily migraines for over 10 years and for 22 years I have 
dealt with miscellaneous upper back and neck issues like pinched 
nerves, numb hands and extremely tender skin and muscles. 
After too many visits to the GP's, chiropractors, neurologists and even 
oncologist, I gave up. I was skeptical after the first NUCCA correction. 
I didn't feel much different other than a little light headed. Over the 
course of the next few days though, my healing started to occur just 
as the doctor advised. The migraine headaches have virtually 
disappeared and I have the use of my upper back, neck, arms, 
and hands back. I'm sleeping much better at night and the energy 
to keep up with my little girls. My husband has noticed my increased 
energy level and sparkle in my eye. I have my life back. Thank 
you so much!"- Audra
