Manchester Dizziness and Neck Pain Care at Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries
Dizziness is a problem. Alone, dizziness can be upsetting, but it can also alter balance and contribute to falls. Dizziness with related cervical spine disc degeneration can be a problem for older folks. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries shares new research about chronic neck pain and its link to dizziness as well as the role Manchester chiropractic care contributes in relief of neck pain and frequently related dizziness.
CERVICAL SPINE DISC DEGENERATION AND DIZZINESS
Patients with chronic neck pain due to cervical degenerative disease often have 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 the diagnosis for 89% of these patients. Improper neck postures over long periods of time may be a factor when there is existing degenerative cervical disc disease. Men and women have separate prompts for their dizziness. For example, farming, gardening, and weeding may initiate general dizziness, particularly in older women. (1) Surgeons reporting on a new surgical approach to relieving chronic neck pain explained that current clinical and immunohistochemical studies strongly suggested that chronic neck pain and intractable dizziness arose from degenerated cervical spine discs. The dizziness ensued 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 report that conservative treatment is effective for them. (3) Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries is the place for conservative chiropractic care of Manchester 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 found 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.
