The Patient (You Are the Hero of Your Recovery)When chronic spinal tension, neurological symptoms, or unanswered health struggles keep interrupting your work, sleep, and family life, it is frustrating to be told your only option is temporary symptom management.
At Hope Upper Cervical Spine Center in Southlake, we understand how exhausting it is to search for real answers when you just want to feel like yourself again.
“I don't live in your body.”
This is one of the single most important statements I can make to a patient.
So often, we seek “expert” wisdom from a health care provider even when that provider has never had to live a day in our body.
Can they provide parameters to help you achieve the goal you have set before you?
Absolutely!
But do they live in your body?
No.
You see, what happens inside the 4 walls of an office is an incredibly short time period.
Most of the patients who start care with me will see me on average about 1 hour a week split between two days (that’s 30 minutes 2x a week)
1 hour out of 168 hours a week.
In that hour I am constantly asked “what can I do outside of the office to ensure the success of this investment?”
It is incredibly simple.
Lets do a breakdown of a 24 hour period.
How many hours do you spend sleeping?
How many hours do you spend exercising?
How many hours do you spend sitting?
How many hours do you spend on a screen?
How many hours do you sabbath?
Be honest with yourself and I am sure you will start to see a pattern in where the gaps are.
Most people are inconsistent in three of those options: Sleep, Sabbath, Exercise.
Most people are very consistent on the other two: screen time and sitting.
Want to reclaim your health?
Get consistent in the 3 that matter.
Go to bed and wake up at the same time every single day.
Get at least 45 minutes of walking outside every single day.
Sabbath 1 day a week (God made it that way.)
If you can do this, I guarantee you your body will be transformed.
You are the only one who has to live in the only body you will ever have.
How you choose to live and take care of that body is up to you.
Not your doctor.
Not your spouse.
Not your friend.
You.
Own your body or your body will be owned.

Common Patient Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Hope Upper Cervical Spine Center in Southlake different from traditional chiropractic clinics?
Dr. Joey Kramer specializes exclusively in Blair Upper Cervical Care—focusing on the top two bones of the neck (Atlas and Axis) that protect your brainstem. Using 3D imaging and infrared thermography, every correction is custom-calculated to your anatomy with zero twisting, popping, or cracking.
What does "Holding is Healing" mean for my care plan?
An adjustment doesn’t heal you—holding your proper alignment over time is what allows damaged nerves, discs, and soft tissues to heal. Because our goal is for your adjustment to hold as long as possible, you need fewer adjustments over time rather than endless three-times-a-week visits.
Do I need a medical referral to schedule a consultation with Dr. Joey Kramer?
No referral is needed. You can book a complimentary consultation directly online or call our Southlake office at (972) 638-0994 to discuss your health goals with Dr. Kramer.
How does Dr. Kramer know whether Upper Cervical Care can help my specific case?
Before recommending any care plan, Dr. Kramer conducts a thorough consultation, neurological thermography scan, postural evaluation, and 3D structural imaging so you can see clearly whether an upper cervical misalignment is contributing to your symptoms.
