Multiple Sclerosis, the Upper Cervical Spine, and the Search for Neurologic Stability

New research explores how Atlas Orthogonal care was associated with improvements in fatigue, dizziness, balance, sensory symptoms, and MRI findings in a patient with multiple sclerosis

This podcast discusses newly published research involving a 30-year-old man with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis who experienced dizziness, sensory disturbances, headaches, gait instability, fatigue, and cervical spinal cord lesions. The discussion explores how Atlas Orthogonal upper cervical correction and full-spine chiropractic care were associated with substantial improvements in symptom burden, fatigue, dizziness, balance, posture, and functional stability. The patient also showed follow-up MRI improvement at the C4-C5 lesion, with no new active lesions reported. The episode highlights the possible role of craniocervical alignment, CSF flow, venous drainage, proprioception, and autonomic regulation in supporting neurologic function.
