Chiro for Vertigo
Vertigo is referred to as the feeling of spinning or feeling dizzy. It may be caused by a variety of factors, including inner ear disorders, head trauma, certain medications, and other medical conditions. Chiropractic care is a safe and effective option for treating vertigo and the associated symptoms.

What Causes Vertigo?
Vertigo is usually caused by a problem with the inner ear which gives us feedback on balance and movement. Causes of vertigo include head trauma, neck injuries, immune responses, certain medications, and certain diseases of the brain, such as multiple sclerosis and stroke.
Additionally, it can also be brought on by alcohol, caffeine, blood vessel problems, and migraine headaches.
Vertigo Treatment with Chiro
Chiropractic is a holistic approach to treating vertigo that involves realigning the spine and the neck to reduce pressure and tension in the area and to also remove nervous system interference to the inner ear. This results in a reduction of the symptoms associated with vertigo, such as dizziness, nausea, ringing in the ears, and headaches. Certain diagnosis of vertigo may also require prescriptive exercises and diet and lifestyle modifications.
Vertigo Prevention & Management
While chiro for vertigo can be beneficial for the treatment of vertigo, certain lifestyle changes will also improve the frequency and severity of the symptoms including regular exercise, eating a balanced diet, avoiding caffeine and alcohol, and reducing stress.
