What is vertigo?
Vertigo is a type of dizziness characterized by a sensation of spinning or movement, even when you are stationary. It is often caused by fixation or restriction of the upper cervical (neck) area, as well as issues in the inner ear or the vestibular system, which is responsible for balance.
How can chiropractic care help with vertigo?
Chiropractic care can help with vertigo by addressing misalignments in the spine, particularly in the cervical spine (neck). These misalignments can affect blood flow and nerve function, which may contribute to vertigo symptoms. By restoring proper alignment, spinal decompression or chiropractic adjustments can potentially reduce vertigo episodes.
What chiropractic techniques are used to treat vertigo?
Chiropractors may use various techniques to treat vertigo, including spinal decompression, spinal adjustments, manual therapy, and vestibular rehabilitation exercises. These techniques aim to improve spinal alignment, reduce inflammation, and enhance the function of the vestibular system.
Is chiropractic care safe for vertigo patients?
Chiropractic care is not only considered safe for vertigo patients, but is highly successful in relieving vertigo symptoms. Enjoy the benefits of a natural, drug-free approach to restoring function!
How many chiropractic sessions are needed to treat vertigo?
The number of chiropractic or spinal decompression sessions needed to treat vertigo can vary depending on the severity of the condition and individual response to treatment. Some patients may experience relief after just a few sessions, while others may require more ongoing care.
