Manahawkin Dizziness and Neck Pain Care at Manahawkin Chiropractic Center
Dizziness is a problem. Alone, dizziness can be frustrating, but it can also affect balance and lead to falls. Dizziness with associated cervical spine disc degeneration can be a problem for folks of an older age. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center presents new research about chronic neck pain and its link to dizziness as well as the role Manahawkin chiropractic care contributes in neck pain relief and frequently related dizziness.
CERVICAL SPINE DISC DEGENERATION AND DIZZINESS
Patients with chronic neck pain due to cervical degenerative disease often experience dizziness as well as neck pain. Many existing studies, both clinical and basic science, describe the relationship of cervical disc degeneration and dizziness. A recent study indicated that cervicogenic general dizziness was diagnosed in 89% of such patients. Improper neck postures over long time periods may contribute when there is existing degenerative cervical disc disease. Men and women have separate prompts for their dizziness. For example, farming, gardening, and weeding may trigger general dizziness, especially in women who are older. (1) Surgeons reporting on a new surgical approach to relieving chronic neck pain pointed out that current clinical and immunohistochemical studies strongly indicated that chronic neck pain and intractable dizziness arose from degenerated cervical spine discs. The dizziness occurred with only cervical disc degeneration alone without cervical radiculopathy or myelopathy. (2) Such degenerative disc disease in the neck also has been found to be accompanied by inflammation, particularly inflammatory cytokines that trigger mechanoreceptors like the Ruffini corpuscles in degenerated discs resulting in dizziness. The good news: a majority of patients with cervical disc disease and related dizziness report that conservative treatment is effective for them. (3) Manahawkin Chiropractic Center is the home for conservative chiropractic care of Manahawkin neck pain and degenerated cervical discs.
CHIROPRACTIC CONSERVATIVE CARE FOR DIZZINESS
An Australian study of chiropractic care of neck pain patients who also experienced dizziness found that chiropractic is often used by these patients to handle their neck pain. One in five people over age 70 years suffered with neck pain. 57.3% of chiropractors stated that the neck pain and associated dizziness was moderately responsive to their chiropractic conservative care.
