The upper cervical spine

One third of all complaints in the ENT field are signs of a functional disorder of the cervical spine. The treating physician must be aware of these connections: only then can they make an accurate diagnosis and differentiate it from cochleovestibular, rhinological, and laryngological conditions. This is a prerequisite for causal and effective therapy. The book provides practical knowledge and skills for this differentiated approach, such as: pathophysiology and symptomatology of various functional disorders and vertebrogenic conditions in the ENT field, from dizziness to pain symptoms in the head area, simple manual examination techniques to identify functional cervical spine disorders, imaging diagnostic procedures for ENT complaints and their evaluation, and manual therapeutic approaches.
