Cervical spondylosis, also referred to as cervical osteoarthritis, is an age related condition where the cervical spine degenerates as a result of wear and tear on the vertebrae and cartilage. Spinal degeneration changes naturally occur with age, usually beginning in people over the age of 55, but every individual ages differently. The natural aspects of aging affect some people more than others, depending on how much the body is overworked.

Weakness of the muscles and tingling can also be associated with cervical spondylosis since the degeneration of the spine makes the spaces in between the vertebrae smaller, causing an impingement of the nerves in the cervical area.

Dr. Alex Jimenez D.C.,C.C.S.T’s insight:

Cervical spondylosis is a condition relating to age, where the cervical spine begins to degenerate due to wear and tear. Also known as cervical osteoarthritis, the degeneration of the spine is a natural process which generally occurs in people over the age of 55.

Cerebellar Rehabilitation Exercises in El Paso, TX

Although the cerebellum has many responsibilities, its central function is to coordinate and handle motor activities. Balance, coordination, posture, equilibrium and eye motion are controlled in part by the cerebellum. Additionally, it works to calibrate motor actions in order for our movements to have a smooth, flowing nature to them. The cerebellum receives data from various other structures, like the inner ear and the vestibular system, and fine-tunes incoming sensorimotor information to achieve naturally smooth movements.

Cerebellum Exercises

Many cerebellum exercises are available which help the cerebellum enhance the operation of its neurons. Essentially, neurons want stimulation to be able to function accordingly. When neurons do not get enough stimulation, they become unstable, which can lead to a lot of behavioral difficulties, such as the ones connected with AD

Epley Maneuver Used by Chiropractors for BPPV in El Paso, TX

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is a common type of vertigo, a sensation of spinning or whirling and loss of balance, which has been reported to account for as many as 17 percent of all cases of dizziness. Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, or BPPV, is believed to be caused by a health issue in the inner ear. While it is typically associated with aging, head injuries have also been found to cause BPPV.

BPPV occurs when several of the small crystals found in the inner ear, known as otoconia, become loose and wind up in one or more of the three fluid-filled semicircular canals of the ear. Whenever these crystals move around the inner ear, they can cause the fluid in the semicircular canals to become displaced. This ultimately results in a spinning or whirling sensation, otherwise referred to as vertigo. The symptoms of BPPV can often come on suddenly when a

Dix-Hallpike Test Used by Chiropractors for BPPV in El Paso, TX

Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo, or BPPV, is the most common vestibular disorder and it is by far the most common cause of vertigo, a false sensation of rotational movement or spinning. BPPV isn’t life-threatening, it can come in unexpectedly in brief spells and it can trigger with certain head positions or motions. This might frequently occur when you tip your head down or up, when you lie down, or when you flip over or sit up in bed.

BPPV is a mechanical problem in the inner ear. It occurs when some of the calcium carbonate crystals, known as otoconia, that are typically embedded in gel at the utricle, become dislodged and migrate into at least one of the 3 fluid-filled semicircular canals, in which they are not supposed to be. When enough of these particles collect among the canals, they interfere with the fluid movement that these canals use to sense hea
