Measure What Matters: How NeckCare Helps Chiropractors Deliver Smarter, Measurable Cervical Spine Care

Every chiropractor who treats the cervical spine knows this truth:

Two patients with the same symptoms can respond completely differently to care.

One improves quickly. The other plateaus.
One says they feel better, but their posture hasn’t changed.
One shows a visible shift—yet still struggles with proprioception or coordination.

And until now, most of that insight lived in your hands and experience. You felt the differences, made adjustments, asked questions—but true measurement? That was harder.

That’s why we’re excited to introduce a partnership with a company that’s changing the game:

NeckCare.

This isn’t a wedge, a traction device, or an at-home foam block. NeckCare is a clinical-grade tool that gives chiropractors real-time, objective data on cervical spine function—so you can assess, treat, and track outcomes with greater clarity than ever before.

If you treat patients with neck pain, whiplash, postural stress, or post-concussion symptoms, NeckCare is a tool worth exploring.

Here’s why.

The Problem: Gaps in Cervical Spine Assessment

As chiropractors, we excel at detecting dysfunction.

We observe motion. We palpate tissue tone. We listen to patient feedback. And we adjust accordingly.

But here’s the challenge:

  • Cervical motion is complex.

  • Sensorimotor control is subtle.

  • Proprioceptive deficits often go unnoticed.

And without objective data, we’re left making decisions based on what we see or what the patient says—not what’s actually happening in their neuromuscular system.

That creates gaps in care.

  • The patient who “feels fine” but still has faulty head-neck-eye coordination

  • The post-MVC patient who’s “improving” but still can’t stabilize their neck position

  • The patient with forward head posture whose joint position error is never measured

And most importantly—it makes it hard to show progress in measurable ways.

The Solution: What Is NeckCare?

NeckCare is a simple, wireless head-mounted sensor that objectively measures three key aspects of cervical spine function:

  1. Active Range of Motion

  2. Joint Position Error (Proprioception)

  3. Sensorimotor Control (Eye-Head Coordination)

These are tests you couldn’t run in practice without expensive equipment or time-consuming processes—until now.

With NeckCare, chiropractors can quickly:

  • Assess deficits in cervical movement and control

  • Establish clear, baseline metrics

  • Track progress over time

  • Educate patients with visual data

  • Enhance documentation for insurance and referrals

It’s the difference between saying “Your neck looks better” and showing “You’ve reduced your proprioceptive error by 47% in three weeks.”

The Core Tests: What You Can Measure with NeckCare

Let’s take a closer look at what the NeckCare system evaluates—and why it matters.

✅ Active Range of Motion (ROM)

You get precise measurements of cervical flexion, extension, lateral bending, and rotation—with real-time visuals and post-assessment graphs.

Why this matters:

  • Creates a reliable clinical baseline

  • Tracks improvement objectively

  • Identifies asymmetries that palpation might miss

✅ Joint Position Error (JPE)

This test evaluates how accurately a patient can return their head to a neutral position after turning away—a key measure of cervical proprioception.

Why this matters:

  • Useful for patients with neck pain, whiplash, and postural instability

  • Highlights neuromuscular deficits even when ROM appears normal

  • Helps guide rehab strategies and referrals when needed

✅ Sensorimotor Control ("Butterfly Test")

This unique visual tracking test evaluates the patient’s ability to follow a moving target on screen using head and neck movements, while keeping their eyes aligned.

Why this matters:

  • Supports diagnosis of cervicogenic dizziness, headaches, and balance issues

  • Helps identify coordination deficits that traditional ortho/neuro tests miss

  • Reinforces the brain-body connection that chiropractic care supports

Who NeckCare Is Perfect For

NeckCare isn’t just for tech-savvy practices. It’s for chiropractors who care about outcomes—and want to bring clarity to complex cases.

Here’s where it fits best:

  • Whiplash and auto injury patients
    Objective tracking improves documentation, recovery planning, and compliance.

  • Post-concussion or dizziness cases
    Sensorimotor testing adds clinical value and helps guide referrals or co-management.

  • Forward head posture & postural rehab
    Measure what you’re correcting—not just based on how it looks, but how it functions.

  • Wellness patients & athletes
    Highlight small improvements that might go unnoticed, and keep motivated patients engaged.

  • Documentation-heavy practices
    For insurance, PI, and referral-based offices, the ability to provide quantifiable change is a serious competitive edge.

How It Works (And How Easy It Is)

One of the best things about NeckCare? You can set it up and start testing in minutes.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Attach the sensor to a headband or goggles (provided in the kit).

  2. Launch the software on any laptop or tablet (Mac or PC).

  3. Run the test you want (ROM, JPE, Butterfly), following easy on-screen prompts.

  4. Review the results with your patient—including graphs, normative comparisons, and change over time.

  5. Track progress, adjust your care plan, and use the data to reinforce clinical decisions and patient education.

No expensive setup. No multi-day training. No overbuilt tech. Just a clean, user-friendly, chiropractor-focused tool that does exactly what you need it to do.

What Other Doctors Are Saying

“NeckCare helps us turn what we feel into data we can use. We’ve added it to every new patient exam—and the wow factor is real.”
—Dr. Chris Beltran, DPT

“This is a must-have tool for post-whiplash and sensorimotor rehab. The proprioceptive data is clear, and patients understand what we’re doing better.”
—Dr. Cameron Bearder, DC

“We’re getting more referrals, faster progress, and more confident care planning. NeckCare elevated how we assess the cervical spine.”
—Dr. Robert Bashuk, MD

Final Thoughts: This Is the Future of Cervical Care

For years, chiropractors have relied on feel, feedback, and functional movement patterns to guide cervical care.

That still matters.

But in a world of rising expectations, evidence-based practice models, and outcome-driven reimbursement—it’s time to add more.

NeckCare helps you:

  • Improve diagnostic clarity

  • Make better care decisions

  • Track outcomes with confidence

  • Educate patients with real visuals

  • Support documentation and referrals

  • Deliver care that feels as smart as it is effective
