Upper Cervical Care for Visual Disturbances
Visual disturbances vary from blurriness, double vision, and light sensitivity to visual field loss, causing discomfort and disruption in daily life. While these problems are often linked to eye health, they can also be affected by neurological and structural issues, especially in the neck. Upper cervical chiropractic care targets misalignments in the upper neck, which can significantly improve visual health. This article discusses how this specialized chiropractic approach can relieve different visual problems.
Exploring the Link Between the Cervical Spine and Visual Health
The upper cervical spine, comprised of the atlas (C1) and axis (C2) vertebrae, is vital for maintaining proper nerve function throughout the body. Misalignments in this area can affect blood flow and nerve signals to various parts, including the eyes. This spine section is closely connected to the central nervous system and nerves that control blood vessel size. When these vertebrae are not aligned correctly, it can affect nerves that affect eye function, possibly causing vision problems.
