EDS Help in Marietta
At Berner Upper Cervical Chiropractic, we have many patients with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) in active care. Many of them discovered us through simple word-of-mouth referrals. EDS is a difficult condition to diagnose, and many patients have never heard of it before.
What Is Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome?
EDS refers to a collection of disorders affecting connective tissues—those essential components of the body that connect and support various structures like the skin and joints. In some patients with this syndrome, these tissues, especially ligaments bolstering the spinal structure, may exhibit more laxity or flexibility than usual. This heightened flexibility can lead to instability in the upper cervical spine, particularly the atlantoaxial joint, where the first two vertebrae interlink.
For individuals with EDS, the ligaments and tissues anchoring the upper cervical spine may be overly stretchy, enabling excessive movement and misalignment of the vertebrae. This instability can lead to various neurological symptoms.
How We Help
We provide upper cervical chiropractic care to address EDS at Berner Upper Cervical Chiropractic. Correcting the misalignment of the vertebrae can help stabilize the condition, providing patients with much-needed relief.
