UPPER CERVICAL SPINE ISSUES AND DIZZINESS

The function and structure of the upper cervical spine may perhaps bring on dizziness. Issues with upper cervical spine muscles and ligaments may impact cervicogenic dizziness. How? Such problems may produce confusion for the proprioception system controlled in part by the vestibular nucleus. Changes in these ligaments and muscles may spark abnormal reactions that result in dizziness.

NECK PAIN AND CERVICOGENIC DIZZINESS IMPROVED WITH CHIROPRATIC CARE

Cervicogenic dizziness is explained as dizziness that happens in patients with neck pain. No specific assessment for cervicogenic dizziness is recognized, but patients with neck pain due to a cervical spine pathology who have dizziness present to doctors for assistance. What might the link be? Cervical muscles connect and interact with the vestibular, visual, and higher centers to produce effective proprioception, the recognition of body position and movement. When this proprioception is altered with neck pain, the dizziness may arise too. One recent case report of a 24-year-old woman with neck pain and cervicogenic dizziness described improvement of both with chiropractic care.
