How Chiropractic Care Can Help Relieve Vertigo Symptoms

John Son • March 27, 2023

If you've ever experienced vertigo, you know how disruptive it can be to your daily life. Vertigo is a condition that causes a false sensation of movement or spinning, even when you're standing still. While vertigo can be caused by a variety of factors, including inner ear disorders, neck injuries, and even certain medications, chiropractic care has been shown to be effective in helping to relieve vertigo symptoms.


What Is Vertigo and What Are the Symptoms?


Vertigo is a type of dizziness that makes you feel like you're spinning or the world around you is spinning. The symptoms of vertigo can vary, but they often include:


  • A spinning or tilting sensation
  • Dizziness 
  • Loss of balance or coordination
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Sweating or clamminess
  • Headache
  • Ringing in the ears (tinnitus)
  • Hearing loss


If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, it's important to seek medical attention to determine the underlying cause of your vertigo.


How Can Chiropractic Care Help Relieve Vertigo Symptoms?


Chiropractic care involves the use of gentle spinal adjustments to restore proper alignment and function to the spine. For vertigo patients, this can be particularly helpful, as misalignments in the upper cervical spine (the neck) can contribute to vertigo symptoms. By restoring proper alignment to the spine, chiropractic care can help to reduce pressure on the nerves and blood vessels that serve the inner ear, which can help to alleviate vertigo symptoms.


What Are the Benefits of Chiropractic Care for Vertigo Patients?


Chiropractic care offers several benefits for vertigo patients, including:


  • Non-invasive treatment: Chiropractic care is a non-invasive, drug-free treatment option for vertigo, which means it carries less risk of side effects or complications than other treatments.


  • Improved balance and coordination: By restoring proper alignment to the spine, chiropractic care can help to improve balance and coordination, which can reduce the risk of falls and other accidents.


  • Improved overall health: Chiropractic care is designed to promote overall health and wellness, which means that patients may experience additional benefits beyond relief from vertigo symptoms.


What to Expect during a Chiropractic Consultation for Vertigo


During your initial consultation with a chiropractor, they will perform a thorough evaluation of your spine and nervous system, as well as ask you about your medical history and any current symptoms you're experiencing. Based on this evaluation, they will develop a personalized treatment plan to address your specific needs and concerns.


How Often Should You See a Chiropractor for Vertigo Relief?


The frequency of chiropractic visits will depend on the severity of your vertigo symptoms and the underlying cause of your condition. Some patients may find relief after just a few visits, while others may require ongoing chiropractic care to manage their symptoms.


Are There Any Risks Associated with Chiropractic Care for Vertigo Patients?


Chiropractic care is generally safe for most patients, including those with vertigo. However, as with any medical treatment, there are some risks involved. These may include soreness or stiffness after a chiropractic adjustment, or in rare cases, more serious complications such as nerve damage or stroke.

While these risks are extremely rare, it’s important to discuss them with your chiropractor before beginning any treatment. Your chiropractor will conduct a thorough medical history and examination to determine if chiropractic care is appropriate for you and to identify any underlying conditions that may increase your risk for complications.
