Understanding the Importance of Cerebrospinal Fluid Flow for Your Health

How Can Upper Cervical Chiropractic Relieve Headaches and Migraines Through Improved Cerebrospinal Fluid Flow?

In this video, Dr. Ed Gigliotti (and an adorable special guest 👧) discuss the significance of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow in the upper cervical spine. He explains how this fluid is essential for waste removal and nutrient supply, along with protection for the brain and spinal cord. Dr. Ed highlights the correlation between decreased fluid flow and conditions like MS, migraines, and neurodegenerative diseases. When there is decreased CSF flow, with each heartbeat the fluid cannot move where it is supposed to and has nowhere else to go except to pulsate against the brain. Research has shown a high correlation between headaches and migraines to fluid backup in the skull.

He also presents dynamic MRI images that demonstrate the impact of Upper Cervical Chiropractic adjustments on cerebrospinal fluid flow. This video provides valuable insights into the role of fluid flow in overall health and emphasizes the importance of regular Upper Cervical Chiropractic check-ups and adjustments.
