Here is an interview I did with upper cervical doctor, Dr. Gary Golembiewski of NJ.

Dr. Golembiewski is a second generation chiropractor, whose father had the privilege of working in the BJ Palmer Private clinic.

He was telling me one day about a presentation he put together about the history of the Palmer clinic, and how he ended the presentation by playing a recording of BJ Palmer giving a health talk at his clinic.

I asked if I could interview him, focusing on BJ and the clinic, and the health talk, and he agreed.

This is an excellent overview of the history of BJ and the clinic, including clips of the health talk.

It really demonstrates BJ’s devotion to upper cervical chiropractic.

This interview is very different from every other one I’ve conducted, and I’d really appreciate your feedback.

Here is the slide presentation referenced in the interview.

Here is an interview I did with Dr. Drew Hall of Redondo Beach, California.

He is an upper cervical evangelist and dedicated practitioner of the Blair technique, and when he’s not correcting patient’s atlas subluxations, he’s the president of the blair society.

In this interview he tells the story of how:

• He was was introduced to upper cervical
• How an epiphany during a walk home led to him enrolling in chiropractic school
• About his early days in practice
• A few case studies
• And more.

I hope you enjoy this interview.

I made a few changes to how I conduct these interviews starting with this one with Dr. Hall.

First of all, I conducted the entire interview via Skype which is a voice over internet protocol program. This resulted in a much clearer and even recording which cut down on editing time and allowed me to deliver to you a better, final product quicker than normal.

Second, because I now use the computer and the web for the whole process, it allows me to actually broadcast the conducting of the interview live, complete with video.

If you would like to see the video of me interviewing Dr. Hall, you can either see it on the front page of the blog (http://www.uppercervicaldocs.com) under the “Featured Upper Cervical Interview” section, or you can go to http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/2683135 to see the recorded video.

I did not announce the live broadcast this time because I wanted to have a chance to iron out any mistakes before I had a huge audience. Believe it or not, there were absolutely no mistakes whatsoever, and everything went off without a single hitch – no software problems, no video problems, no bandwidth problems – nothing.

So the next time I conduct an interview, I will be sure to give you advanced notice so you can tune in and watch the interview live if you want to.

The place to see future interviews live will be http://www.ustream.tv/channel/uppercervicaldocs.

I’ve also produced the interview more like a standard podcast, and stopped dividing up the recordings into parts. Now the whole interview is in one single mp3 file.

This makes it much easier to subscribe to the podcast feed and synching up your mp3 player.

I’ve also, after much wailing and gnashing of teeth, cleaned up the feed so that you can easily subscribe to the interviews via iTunes, and synch your iPod, iPhone or other mp3 player to the podcast section of the iTunes store.

You can get to iTunes podcast by clicking on this link: http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=344773151.

I am now in the process of cleaning up past interviews to make them one single file and the blog, and iTunes should reflect that as I am able to make it happen.

The official RSS feed for the interviews can be found at http://feeds.feedburner.com/upper-cervical-interviews if you would rather subscribe in another type of reader.

Of course you will still be able to listen, and download the interviews directly from the website http://www.uppercervicaldocs.com/.

Be on the lookout in the very near future for more regular upper cervical podcasts that are more than just interviews.

Lastly, I want to thank you for your support and encouragement as I’ve traveled down this path… I truly enjoy doing this and hope that you enjoy listening, just as much.

Upper Cervical Interview | Dr. James Tomasi | Upper Cervical Advocate

In 1997, James was making final plans to take his own life after suffering with excruciating pain from trigeminal neuralgia for over 10 years.

His wife heard a radio program about upper cervical care and convinced him to go see the upper cervical doctor in their town.

Needless to say, that visit changed his life, and ended his plans to commit suicide.

Now Dr. Tomasi lives his life making people aware of upper cervical care across the nation by doing public service lectures, TV and Radio appearances, as well as speaking in many churches, colleges and clinics.

He has written several books along with his wife, Rhonda, and one book, What Time Tuesday chronicles his personal story of suffering with trigeminal neuralgia and his recovery under upper cervical care.

This interview is about an hour long, in two parts, and I hope you enjoy it.

Brandon is about to graduate from Parker in Texas, and I wanted to interview him because of his presence on the internet, particularly at his website http://theatlasoflife.com where he posts news, opinions and interviews of prominent upper cervical doctors and patients.

I didn’t even realize that he was still a student until rather recently which is a testament to how a presence on the web lends a kind of authority to you.

The internet can be an incredibly powerful tool to spread the message of upper cervical chiropractic care, and Brandon is doing a temendous job of doing just that.

The internet allows you to have your own publishing house, radio station, or television station, for very little cost, and it is being utilized more and more frequently as peoples first choice for information, and your patients and prospective patients are going to the internet to get information on upper cervical.

Chances are, if you aren’t posting relevant information on the web, people like Brandon are supplying your patients and prospective patients information about what upper cervical is, and how it can help them.

Little did I know how interesting Brandon’s journey has been.  In this interview we discuss:

• How he chose to become a chiropractor
• How he was first exposed to upper cervical chiropractic
• How he dropped out of chiropractic school with no plans of ever returning
• How a vivid dream lead to him re-enrolling
• Why he decided to start his website

And much more.

Brandon has a bright future ahead of him, and I hope you enjoy this interview.
