The neck may be one of the most underestimated sensory organs in the body.😳
Your neck doesn’t just move your head , it plays a major role in how your brain understands balance, vision & head position.
The small muscles at the base of your skull are packed with sensory receptors that constantly send information to your brain🧠 about where your head is in space. In fact, these muscles contain more position-sensing receptors than almost anywhere else in the body.
When this system isn’t working well, it can contribute to:
🤕 Headaches
😵💫 Dizziness or unsteadiness
👀 Visual disturbances
🫨 A “bobble-head” or “off” feeling
That’s why at North 49, we don’t just look at how your neck moves — we assess how it senses, coordinates, and stabilizes.
If you’ve been dealing with ongoing neck issues and haven’t found answers yet, it may be time to look deeper.
