Meet Dr. Jonathan Finney – Co-Owner of Peak Chiropractic in Boise

At Peak Chiropractic, we specialize in upper cervical care, focusing on the most neurologically dense area of the spine—the atlas (C1) and axis (C2) vertebrae. Led by Dr. Jonathan Finney, our clinic uses cutting-edge 3D imaging technology to pinpoint misalignments with millimeter precision, ensuring the most accurate and effective adjustments for our patients.

The Science Behind Upper Cervical Chiropractic

Upper cervical chiropractic focuses on the atlas (C1) and axis (C2) vertebrae, which sit at the base of the skull and play a crucial role in nervous system function. These two bones can misalign in 274 different ways, making precise adjustments critical for restoring proper function.

At Peak Chiropractic, we use:

  • Advanced 3D X-ray imaging to evaluate misalignment
  • Measurements accurate to a hundredth of a millimeter for precision
  • Non-invasive, gentle adjustments—no twisting, cracking, or popping

By correcting upper cervical misalignment, we help restore nervous system function and allow the body to heal itself naturally.

Helping Patients with Neurological Conditions

When the atlas and axis misalign, they can cause nervous system dysfunction, leading to various neurological conditions, including:

  • Migraines & chronic headaches
  • Vertigo & balance issues
  • Trigeminal neuralgia
  • Multiple sclerosis (MS) symptom management
  • Other nervous system-related conditions

When the nervous system is in a stressful state, symptoms manifest and worsen over time. By removing interference, we allow the body to function at its highest potential.

A Gentle, Precise, and Effective Approach

At Peak Chiropractic, we believe in helping the body heal from within—without forceful twisting, cracking, or popping. Our goal is to:

  • Restore nervous system balance
  • Optimize brain-body communication
  • Provide long-lasting relief through precise upper cervical care

If you’re struggling with chronic health issues and haven’t found answers elsewhere, upper cervical chiropractic could be the key to restoring your health.

I am personally scared of being twisted and popped and that’s not part of their practice.
Peak Chiropractic is an amazing place. Jon and Kierra are very knowledgeable and friendly! They take the time to explain everything and make sure you’re well taken care of. They specialize in starting at the root of the cause and not over doing it. I am personally scared of being twisted and popped and that’s not part of their practice. They made me feel very comfortable and the recovery room is very comforting after the adjustment. I highly recommend Peak!

They are great people, and I always feel better walking out of the office
Peak Chiropractic has taken great care of me over the past few months. They are the only chiropractic clinic in Idaho with a full neck CT scan, which helps them better understand how to adjust you vs traditional X-rays. They are great people, and I always feel better walking out of the office!

Since starting upper cervical chiropractic, there have been lasting changes in my upper and lower back
I have used conventional chiropractic (spinal manipulation, actuators, etc) for over 40 years. These adjustments never held or stabilized my issues. Since starting upper cervical chiropractic, there have been lasting changes in my upper and lower back and in my right hip. I have been to the Peak office for over 4 months now and am completely excited that as I enter my 80’s, I have had these significant improvements in my physical being. Thank you Peak staff!

Migraine Treatment in Boise: Calming the Nervous System With Upper Cervical Care

If you live with migraines, you already know they are nothing like an ordinary headache. The light that suddenly feels too bright, the nausea, the pressure that can steal an entire day — these aren't a matter of "just pushing through." At Peak Upper Cervical Center here in Boise, we look at migraines a little differently. Instead of only chasing the pain when it hits, we ask why your nervous system is tipping into a migraine in the first place.
