San Jose Dizziness and Neck Pain Care at Chiropractic Solutions
Dizziness is a problem. Alone, dizziness can be frustrating, but it can also affect balance and contribute to falls. Dizziness with associated cervical spine disc degeneration can be a problem for folks of an older age. Chiropractic Solutions presents new research about chronic neck pain and its link to dizziness as well as the role San Jose 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 experience dizziness as well as neck pain. Many already-published studies, both clinical and basic science, detail the relationship of cervical disc degeneration and dizziness. A new study pointed out that cervicogenic general dizziness was diagnosed in 89% of such patients. Improper neck postures over long periods of time 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, especially in women who are older. (1) Surgeons reporting on a new surgical approach to relieving chronic neck pain pointed out that current clinical and immunohistochemical studies strongly indicated that chronic neck pain and intractable dizziness arose from degenerated cervical spine discs. The dizziness happened 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, particularly 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 related dizziness find conservative treatment to be effective for them. (3) Chiropractic Solutions is the place for conservative chiropractic care of San Jose neck pain and degenerated cervical discs.
CHIROPRACTIC CONSERVATIVE CARE FOR DIZZINESS
An Australian study of chiropractic care of neck pain patients who also experienced dizziness revealed that chiropractic is often used by these patients to manage their neck pain. One in five people over age 70 years experienced neck pain. 57.3% of chiropractors reported that the neck pain and associated dizziness was moderately responsive to their chiropractic conservative care.
