In this CCI Deep Dive episode, Dr. Centeno explains the first and most critical step of craniocervical instability rehab: “threading the needle.” Learn how to progress safely without triggering debilitating flares, how to distinguish adaptive discomfort from dangerous setbacks, and when rehab alone isn’t enough without restoring structural stability first.
Dr. Centeno discusses the functions of the stellate ganglion and the vagus nerve in controlling the fight or flight/chill and repair responses in the human body. Treatment for these nerves is also discussed. Full Video: https://youtube.com/live/rX-RIBIEK78
In this CCI Deep Dive episode, Dr. Centeno walks listeners through how to read and understand a Digital Motion X-ray (DMX) report. Learn which findings actually matter, why tiny measurements can signal major instability, and how dynamic imaging reveals ligament failures that standard scans often miss. A practical guide to making sense of DMX results in the context of chronic neck and neurological symptoms.
In this CCI Deep Dive episode, Dr. Centeno explores why many chronic “migraines” may actually be coming from the neck. Learn how cervical headaches differ from true migraines, why migraine medications often fail, and how upper cervical dysfunction or craniocervical instability can refer pain to the head and face. A clear guide to recognizing when head pain is structural—not neurological.
Dr. Centeno interviews Dr, Markle about a new treatment called IGNIte for trigeminal neuralgia. Full Video: https://youtube.com/live/yHIImJK5zn0
In this CCI Deep Dive episode, Dr. Centeno explores why many chronic “migraines” may actually be coming from the neck. Learn how cervical headaches differ from true migraines, why migraine medications often fail, and how upper cervical dysfunction or craniocervical instability can refer pain to the head and face. A clear guide to recognizing when head pain is structural—not neurological.
In this CCI Deep Dive episode, Dr. Centeno explains why the sensation of heavy arms may have nothing to do with the arms themselves. When common neurological and nerve compression causes are ruled out, upper cervical instability can force shoulder and arm muscles into constant stabilization, creating profound fatigue and heaviness. Learn how craniocervical instability alters normal mechanics—and why treating the neck, not the arms, is often the key.
Dr. Centeno discusses using platelet growth factors to help vagus nerve function in CCI patients and others. Full Video: https://youtube.com/live/FKGucjZA5zo
In this CCI Deep Dive episode, Dr. Centeno explains why the “heavy head” or bobblehead sensation is a meaningful clinical signal—not just fatigue. Learn how muscle atrophy, ligament laxity, and modern posture overload the upper neck, why standard imaging often misses the cause, and how the right diagnosis guides effective treatment.
In this CCI Deep Dive episode, Dr. Centeno explains how specific symptoms point to specific types of craniocervical instability. Learn why looking up, looking down, or persistent dizziness each signal different structural failures—and how precise symptom reporting guides targeted, effective treatment instead of one-size-fits-all care.
In this CCI Deep Dive episode, Dr. Centeno unpacks the evolution of the groundbreaking ePICL procedure—an enhanced, next-generation treatment for craniocervical instability. Listeners will learn how years of technical refinement, dual-imaging systems, and advanced targeting have led to unprecedented precision in stabilizing the upper neck. Discover why this innovation is reshaping anatomy understanding and why it’s currently performed exclusively at the Centeno-Schultz Clinic.
Dr. Centeno dives deep into whether you can use decreased flow in the IJV with head turn to diagnose symptomatic CCI due to compression of the internal jugular vein. He reviews the data and concludes that this information isn't helpful in figuring out which CCI patients have intracranial hypertension caused by craniocervical instability.
Dr. Centeno breaks down why some patients experience significant flare-ups after the PICL procedure while others recover smoothly. This CCI Deep Dive episode explores the top five biological factors—central sensitization, inflammation, medication use, functional level, and cannabis—that shape recovery outcomes. Learn how understanding these drivers can help patients prepare, manage expectations, and improve healing after regenerative treatment.
This episode of the CCI Deep Dive Podcast examines one of the most aggressively marketed—and most misunderstood—areas in regenerative medicine: umbilical cord, amniotic, and placental “stem cell” products. Drawing from published scientific investigations, the discussion breaks down why many of these birth-derived products do not contain functional living stem cells despite bold clinical claims. The episode walks listeners through the hard data, the extremely low viability rates (35–75%)...
Dr. Centeno discusses how the presence of a retroflexed dens on an MRI doesn't mean that it's causing symptoms. He reviews research on this topic and discusses how a retroflexed dens plus CCI or craniocervical instability can cause symptoms. https://youtube.com/live/8j2qbOAaDdE
This episode of the CCI Deep Dive Podcast breaks down one of the most misunderstood topics in regenerative medicine: why platelet-rich plasma (PRP) works brilliantly for some patients and fails for others. Dr. Centeno and the team dissect the three major determinants of PRP success—blood draw volume, kit efficiency, and the patient-specific concentration required to trigger healing. They expose how common low-dose systems, poor technique, and unreported platelet concentrations in clinic...
In this CCI Deep Dive episode, Dr. Centeno explains the critical questions patients should ask before getting any neck injections. The discussion breaks down the five skill and technology levels of cervical spine injection providers—from outdated blind techniques to advanced, image-guided, upper-cervical procedures. Learn how to evaluate safety, precision, and provider expertise to ensure your treatment matches the complexity of your condition and minimizes risk.
Dr. Centeno has a conversation with the IPA physical therapy founders about PT for CCI or craniocervical instability. https://youtube.com/live/JghO6NHuUJE
In this CCI Deep Dive episode, Dr. Centeno examines how craniocervical instability (CCI) in the upper neck can disrupt one of the body’s most vital communication pathways—the vagus nerve—and trigger widespread problems like gastroparesis, dysautonomia, and POTS. Learn how small structural shifts at C1–C2 can interfere with digestion, heart rate, and immune regulation, and why restoring neck stability may hold the key to improving vagus nerve function and overall health.
Dr. Centeno reviews whether craniocervical instability or CCI can cause ear symptoms. https://youtube.com/live/6h5ZwW7-s_o
