Dr. Frederick Schurger

Keystone Chiropractic

Keystone Chiropractic in Springfield, Illinois, provides specialized upper cervical care for individuals who feel stuck, frustrated, or overlooked in their health journey. Many patients arrive after trying traditional treatments or other chiropractic approaches without finding lasting relief. Some have even been told that everything looks normal despite ongoing symptoms.

Dr. Frederick Schurger built Keystone Chiropractic to serve these individuals. His approach focuses on identifying and correcting the root cause of spinal misalignment rather than chasing symptoms. Patients often notice the difference immediately. Exams are thorough, testing is precise, and adjustments are gentle and specific without twisting or cracking.

A Precise Upper Cervical Approach

Dr. Schurger utilizes the Blair Upper Cervical Technique, a highly specialized method that focuses on the top of the spine where the head and neck meet. Misalignments in this delicate area can affect the nervous system and create widespread issues throughout the body. Correcting them requires careful imaging, detailed analysis, and individualized care.

Keystone Chiropractic features one of the most advanced plain film imaging centers in Central Illinois. Specific x rays, thermography, and postural measurements are used to determine the exact direction and degree of misalignment. Each adjustment is tailored to the patient’s unique anatomy.

Following an adjustment, patients rest for approximately 30 minutes in zero gravity chairs. This stabilization period helps the body hold the correction longer, supporting more consistent healing and improved outcomes between visits.

The goal is straightforward: restore proper spinal alignment, help patients maintain their correction, and allow the body to function as it was designed.
