La Grande Dizziness and Neck Pain Care at Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC

Dizziness is a problem. Alone, dizziness can be frustrating, but it can also alter balance and contribute to falls. Dizziness with related cervical spine disc degeneration can be a problem for older folks. Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC presents new research about chronic neck pain and its affiliation to dizziness as well as the role La Grande chiropractic care contributes 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 have dizziness as well as neck pain. Many existing studies, both clinical and basic science, describe the relationship of cervical disc degeneration and dizziness. A new study indicated that cervicogenic general dizziness was diagnosed in 89% of such patients. Inappropriate 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 older women. (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 occurred 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, specifically inflammatory cytokines that trigger mechanoreceptors like the Ruffini corpuscles in degenerated discs leading to dizziness. The good news: a majority of cervical spine disc disease patients and associated dizziness report that conservative treatment is effective for them. (3) Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC is the place for conservative chiropractic care of La Grande 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 often 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 reported that the neck pain and associated dizziness was moderately responsive to their chiropractic conservative care. (4) Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC uses the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management in treating cervical disc degeneration and its related La Grande neck pain.
