Fernandina Beach Dizziness and Neck Pain Care at Amelia Chiropractic Clinic
Dizziness is a problem. Alone, dizziness can be upsetting, but it can also alter balance and lead to falls. Dizziness with related cervical spine disc degeneration can be a problem for older folks. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic presents new research about chronic neck pain and its relationship to dizziness as well as the role Fernandina Beach chiropractic care plays in relieving neck pain and frequently related dizziness.
CERVICAL SPINE DISC DEGENERATION AND DIZZINESS
Patients with chronic neck pain due to cervical degenerative disease often have dizziness as well as neck pain. Many already-published studies, both clinical and basic science, describe the connection of cervical disc degeneration and dizziness. A recent study indicated that cervicogenic general dizziness was diagnosed in 89% of such patients. Inappropriate neck postures over long time periods may be a factor 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 explained that current clinical and immunohistochemical studies strongly suggested that chronic neck pain and intractable dizziness came from degenerated cervical spine discs. The dizziness occurred with only cervical disc degeneration alone without cervical radiculopathy or myelopathy. (2) Such cervical spine degenerative disc disease also has been found to be accompanied by inflammation, specifically inflammatory cytokines that affect mechanoreceptors like the Ruffini corpuscles in degenerated discs resulting in dizziness. The good news: a majority of patients with cervical disc disease and associated dizziness report that conservative treatment is effective for them. (3) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic is the place for conservative chiropractic care of Fernandina Beach 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 often utilized 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. (4) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic utilizes the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management in treating cervical disc degeneration and its related Fernandina Beach neck pain.
