Cervical Syndrome Treatment in Los Angeles

When Unexplained Symptoms Trace Back to Your Neck

Cervical syndrome treatment in Los Angeles may help patients whose symptoms have puzzled other providers. When medical causes have been ruled out, Dr. Heather Faye evaluates whether dysfunction in your neck and upper back could be contributing to dizziness, tinnitus, headaches, or arm symptoms.

Some patients experience a combination of symptoms that remain unexplained despite evaluations by medical specialists. Once medical conditions have been ruled out, dysfunction of the cervical spine and upper thoracic region may be an overlooked contributor.

In some patients, mechanical dysfunction of the neck and upper back may alter normal input to the nervous system, including the sympathetic nervous system, and contribute to a wide variety of symptoms. These symptoms often develop months after a whiplash injury or other neck trauma, making the connection difficult to recognize.
