Ashburn and Herndon Dizziness and Neck Pain Care at Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn
Dizziness is a problem. Alone, dizziness can be frustrating, but it can also affect balance and lead to falls. Dizziness with related cervical spine disc degeneration can be a problem for older folks. Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn presents new research about chronic neck pain and its link to dizziness as well as the role Ashburn and Herndon chiropractic care contributes in neck pain relief 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 existing studies, both clinical and basic science, describe the connection of cervical disc degeneration and dizziness. A recent study pointed out that cervicogenic general dizziness was the diagnosis for 89% of these patients. Improper neck postures over long time periods may contribute when there is existing degenerative cervical disc disease. Men and women have separate prompts for their dizziness. For example, farming, gardening, and weeding may cause general dizziness, particularly in women who are older. (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 came 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) Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn is the place for conservative chiropractic care of Ashburn and Herndon neck pain and degenerated cervical discs.
CHIROPRACTIC CONSERVATIVE CARE FOR DIZZINESS
An Australian study of chiropractic care of neck pain patients who also reported dizziness revealed that chiropractic is frequently used by these patients to manage their neck pain. One in five people over age 70 years suffered with neck pain. 57.3% of chiropractors said that the neck pain and associated dizziness was moderately responsive to their chiropractic conservative care.
