Carrolltown Dizziness and Neck Pain Care at Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation
Dizziness is a problem. Alone, dizziness can be frustrating, but it can also alter balance and lead to falls. Dizziness with associated cervical spine disc degeneration can be a problem for folks of an older age. Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation presents new research about chronic neck pain and its affiliation to dizziness as well as the role Carrolltown chiropractic care plays 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, describe the relationship of cervical disc degeneration and dizziness. A new study pointed out that cervicogenic general dizziness was diagnosed in 89% of these patients. Inappropriate neck postures over long periods of time may contribute when there is existing degenerative cervical disc disease. Men and women have different triggers for their dizziness. For example, farming, gardening, and weeding may initiate general dizziness, especially in older women. (1) Surgeons reporting on a new surgical approach to relieving chronic neck pain pointed out 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 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) Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation is the clinic for conservative chiropractic care of Carrolltown neck pain and degenerated cervical discs.
CHIROPRACTIC CONSERVATIVE CARE FOR DIZZINESS
An Australian study of chiropractic care of neck pain patients who also had 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. (4) Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation utilizes the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management in treating cervical disc degeneration and its related Carrolltown neck pain.
