Dizziness can be troubling. Spine & Sports Rehab Center
often sees neck pain patients with dizziness seeking a cause and a solution. Baton Rouge chiropractic
care of dizziness starts with a thorough examination
to establish a potentially helpful treatment plan
for dizziness associated with spinal issues like Baton Rouge
neck pain.
UPPER CERVICAL SPINE ISSUES AND DIZZINESS
The structure and function of
the upper cervical spine may perhaps contribute
to dizziness. Problems with upper cervical spine muscles and
ligaments may impact
cervicogenic dizziness. How? Such problems may cause
confusion for the proprioception system controlled partly
by the vestibular nucleus. Changes in the
ligaments and muscles may initiate abnormal reactions that result
in dizziness. (1) Spine & Sports Rehab Center invites Baton Rouge neck pain patients with dizziness.
NECK PAIN AND CERVICOGENIC DIZZINESS IMPROVED WITH
CHIROPRATIC CARE
Cervicogenic dizziness is explained as dizziness
that occurs in patients with neck pain. No particular
assessment for cervicogenic dizziness is recognized,
but patients with neck pain because of a cervical spine pathology who
have dizziness present to doctors for help.
What could the connection be? Cervical muscles connect and
interact with the vestibular, visual, and higher centers to generate
effective proprioception, the recognition of body
position and movement. When such proprioception is altered
with neck pain, the dizziness may arise as well. One
new case report of a female aged 24 years
with cervicogenic dizziness
and neck pain described improvement of both with
chiropractic care. (2) Spine & Sports Rehab Center begins chiropractic care
with an exam that influences the development of a relieving
Baton Rouge chiropractic treatment.
DIZZINESS AND NECK PAIN RELIEF
Connecting dizziness and imbalance with neck pain not related to any other
disorders discovered via a thorough
examination is key to relieving care of cervicogenic
dizziness. Manual therapy and vestibular rehabilitation succeeded in
relieving pain for patients in a new paper. (3) Dizziness
may come from damage to the somatosensory system. Upper cervical
spine manipulation was tested in patients with cervicogenic
dizziness. In addition to a decrease in the intensity of the dizziness
and pain, an increase in the range of motion toward the more
restricted side and better function were also reported.
