Cervicogenic Dizziness Symptoms

Think your dizziness is “just stress” or “in your head”?
Here are signs your neck might be the culprit:

⚠️ Dizziness or unsteadiness
⚠️ Visual blurring with head movement
⚠️ Neck stiffness or discomfort
⚠️ Trouble focusing
⚠️ Fatigue or “foggy” feeling

If this sounds familiar, your upper cervical spine may need a closer look.

💡 You’re not imagining it—your neck and brain are deeply connected.

You’re hiking on an uneven trail. Your eyes scan the rocks, your head turns to look around, and your feet adjust your steps.

✅ Your eyes, inner ear, and neck are constantly working together to keep you upright.

Now imagine one of those systems isn’t working right—like your neck after an injury.

That small imbalance can throw off your entire coordination system.

👣 A healthy neck = steady movement, clear vision, and safe steps.

Your body uses a group of reflexes to stabilize your vision, head, and posture—all without you thinking about it:

🔁 Gaze Stabilizing Reflexes: Keep your eyes steady while your head moves

🔁 Neck Stabilizing Reflexes: Stabilize your head on your shoulders

🔁 Postural Stabilizing Reflexes: Help your body stay upright.

If your neck isn’t moving well, these reflexes can falter—leading to dizziness or disorientation.

Meet your Balance Dream Team!

Balance and coordination come from 3 major systems working together:

👀 Vision (your eyes)

👂 Vestibular system (your inner ears)

💪 Cervical proprioception (your neck)

When one of these sends the wrong signals—especially after neck injury or strain—your brain can get confused.
The result? Dizziness, unsteadiness, or brain fog.

💡 That’s why assessing neck function is key in persistent dizziness cases.

Did you know your neck plays a critical role in helping you feel balanced and clear-headed?

Your cervical spine is full of sensors that help your brain interpret where your body is in space. If those signals are off, you might feel dizzy, foggy, or off-balance—even without an obvious injury. This is called cervicogenic dizziness.

👉 If turning your head makes you feel strange, your neck may be the missing piece.

What a fabulous weekend spent with these amazing doctors! We had the opportunity to do a deep dive (literally!) into the anatomy of the upper neck, explore the fascial connections and the myodural bridges in this region, and understand at a deeper level the intricate neurology that is effected by these structures at the California University of Science and Medicine’s anatomy lab with none other than the man who made these discoveries- Dr. Frank Scali. Huge shout out and thank you to him for opening up his lab to us! 👏🏻👏🏻

Improving stability is often more important for individuals with hypermobility than increasing flexibility. Excessive joint movement without adequate support can contribute to:
🔹 Chronic pain
🔹 Fatigue
🔹 Muscle tightness and compensation
Focusing on strengthening deep stabilizers, improving proprioception, and supporting joint alignment can help manage symptoms more effectively.
