Atlas Epigenetics: The Atlas as Epicenter of the Craniocervical Junction (CCJ)...and Why that Matters! The Craniocervical Junction is the gateway to the nervous system and the centering point of the head, neck and jaw. Tucked up inside this region is your C1–sometimes called the Atlas. Upper Cervical doctors have historically focused on just the Atlas–and they accomplished a lot by just realigning the Atlas. It was less invasive than drugs or surgery, but still a temporary fix, and still only the tip of the iceberg for many more complex cases. Fast forward to Atlas Epigenetics. The T.A.P Method and Lymphatique are brought to you by the research and work of Dr. Christopher Chapman, DC, BCAO, DCCJP and the team at Atlas Epigenetics.
