Williamson Dizziness and Neck Pain Care at Apple Country Chiropractic
Dizziness is a problem. Alone, dizziness can be upsetting, but it can also alter balance and contribute to falls. Dizziness with associated cervical spine disc degeneration can be a problem for folks of an older age. Apple Country Chiropractic presents new research about chronic neck pain and its affiliation to dizziness as well as the role Williamson chiropractic care contributes in relief of neck pain and oftentimes 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 already-published studies, both clinical and basic science, detail the connection of cervical disc degeneration and dizziness. A new study indicated that cervicogenic general dizziness was diagnosed in 89% of such patients. Inappropriate neck postures over long time periods may contribute when there is existing degenerative cervical disc disease. Men and women have different prompts for their dizziness. For example, farming, gardening, and weeding may cause general dizziness, particularly in older women. (1) Surgeons reporting on a new surgical approach to relieving chronic neck pain explained that current clinical and immunohistochemical studies strongly suggested 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, specifically inflammatory cytokines that trigger mechanoreceptors like the Ruffini corpuscles in degenerated discs resulting in dizziness. The good news: a majority of cervical spine disc disease patients and related dizziness find conservative treatment to be effective for them. (3) Apple Country Chiropractic is the clinic for conservative chiropractic care of Williamson neck pain and degenerated cervical discs.
CHIROPRACTIC CONSERVATIVE CARE FOR DIZZINESS
An Australian study of chiropractic care of neck pain patients who also reported dizziness revealed that chiropractic is frequently used by these patients to manage their neck pain. One in five people over age 70 years experienced neck pain. 57.3% of chiropractors stated that the neck pain and related dizziness was moderately responsive to their chiropractic conservative care.
