About
Meet Dr. Samuel Dungan
Dr. Samuel Dungan is an upper cervical chiropractor in Encinitas, CA, focused on precise, neurologically based care for people dealing with complex symptoms that often affect daily life.
At Upper Cervical Chiropractic Encinitas, we work with patients experiencing neck pain, headaches, dizziness, unsteadiness, vertigo, POTS, dysautonomia, and other nervous system-related concerns. Many of the people we see have already been to multiple doctors, had imaging, bloodwork, or other testing, and still feel like they do not have clear answers.
Our approach looks closely at the relationship between the upper cervical spine, brainstem, and nervous system function. By identifying and correcting subtle misalignments in the upper neck, we aim to help the body restore better balance, communication, and adaptability.
Dr. Sam’s own experience with persistent neck pain and injuries led him to upper cervical chiropractic care, and it continues to shape the way he supports patients today: with precision, curiosity, and a deep respect for each person’s story.
If you have been searching for answers and wondering whether your neck and nervous system may be part of the picture, we would be happy to talk with you.
