Groton Dizziness and Neck Pain Care at Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office
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. Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office presents new research about chronic neck pain and its relationship to dizziness as well as the role Groton chiropractic care contributes in neck pain relief 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, detail 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 time periods may be a factor when there is existing degenerative cervical disc disease. Men and women have different triggers 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 suggested 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 degenerative disc disease in the neck also has been found to be accompanied by inflammation, specifically inflammatory cytokines that affect mechanoreceptors like the Ruffini corpuscles in degenerated discs leading to dizziness. The good news: a majority of patients with cervical disc disease and associated dizziness report that conservative treatment is effective for them. (3) Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office is the place for conservative chiropractic care of Groton 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 found that chiropractic is frequently used by these patients to handle their neck pain. One in five people over age 70 years suffered with neck pain. 57.3% of chiropractors stated that the neck pain and related dizziness was quite responsive to their chiropractic conservative care.
