Phase of Self-Regulation and Regeneration

Following the Atlantomed treatment, the body initiates a process of self-regulation and regeneration. The mechanical correction of the Atlas is just the beginning of a journey that will continue autonomously and may require months, or even years, depending on the initial condition.

Although in some cases and for certain conditions improvements may be almost immediate, always keep in mind that it took years, or even a lifetime, to reach the condition you were in before the treatment. The cells, organs, skeleton, and muscular system need time to regenerate and achieve a new balance. Asking, just a few days after the treatment, why the symptoms have not yet disappeared is inappropriate and demonstrates a limited understanding of the body's functioning and the treatment.

When the body is allowed to function optimally, many symptoms may resolve spontaneously, including those that might seem unrelated. It is not the correction of the Atlas itself that heals you; the Atlantomed treatment is simply the spark that triggers the self-healing process, which the body carries forward autonomously. It might seem like a minor distinction, as people are primarily concerned with healing, but understanding this difference is essential for setting realistic expectations. This also helps to avoid blaming others for one’s condition, especially when the body lacks the necessary resources to regenerate and achieve the desired results.

Immediate or Progressive Change

A sudden change is easy to notice, unlike gradual and progressive changes, which often go unnoticed unless one reflects analytically on their health status over the previous months. In this context, the health status chart completed before the treatment is a useful comparison tool.

After Atlas correction using the Atlantomed method, the body reacts according to each person’s physical and mental state. In some cases, balance is restored quickly; in others, especially in individuals with long-standing issues, more patience will be required. The most compromised part of the body is often also the most painful.

Facilitating the Regeneration Phase

Regeneration can be facilitated and accelerated with the help of massages, osteopathy (avoid cervical manipulations), Shiatsu, or other manual therapies of your choice. Therapies that had little effect in the past may now bring tangible improvements after Atlas correction, as their effects combine. For this reason, collaboration with other professionals is always welcome.

For Atlantomed specialists, who often also hold qualifications as physiotherapists or osteopaths, Atlas correction is almost always the starting point of the treatment process. When circumstances require it, or to facilitate the regeneration process, they can integrate additional techniques learned throughout their professional journey. Experience shows that without prioritizing Atlas correction and adopting a reverse approach, up to 10 sessions of osteopathy or other types may be necessary, with significantly greater time and financial costs, to achieve lesser and often temporary results. Our approach not only maximizes the relationship between results, time, and resources invested but also enhances overall benefits, making subsequent treatments more effective and longer-lasting.

Depression and Atlas Correction

We are reluctant to treat individuals in a depressive state unless the depression is solely a consequence of years of chronic pain that could not be resolved with conventional treatments. People with depression or an unstable emotional state often face a significantly longer recovery process, especially if they are taking psychotropic drugs. In many cases, the body is too compromised to have the resources needed for self-healing and complete recovery.
