Vertebrobasilar insufficiency (VBI) is a condition characterized by reduced blood flow in the arteries at the back of the neck that supply blood to the brain. Symptoms can include dizziness, vision problems, and in severe cases, stroke.
The intricate relationship between spinal alignment and circulatory health suggests that upper cervical chiropractic care, especially at Restore Chiropractic Center in Ralston, NE, can play a significant role in managing VBI.
Understanding Vertebrobasilar Insufficiency
VBI often results from positional changes or structural abnormalities that compromise blood flow through the vertebrobasilar arterial system. Given the arteries’ proximity to the cervical spine, spinal misalignments can exacerbate or contribute to this condition.
The Upper Cervical Chiropractic Approach
Upper cervical chiropractic focuses on correcting misalignments in the upper neck region, which can have profound effects on the body, including the potential to improve blood flow in vertebral arteries:
- Targeted Adjustments: Precise, gentle adjustments to the atlas and axis can help alleviate pressure on the vertebrobasilar arteries, promoting better circulation.
- Restoring Structural Integrity: Aligning the upper cervical spine supports optimal nervous system function and can indirectly aid in circulatory health, potentially addressing the root causes of VBI.
- Comprehensive Care: At Restore Chiropractic Center, our approach goes beyond adjustments, incorporating lifestyle and nutritional guidance to support vascular health.
