Vertigo is the feeling that your environment is spinning and is a form of dizziness. However, vertigo is different than dizziness because, with vertigo, there is an illusion of movement. If you feel that yourself is moving that is subjective vertigo, but if your perception is that your surroundings are moving, that is called vertigo. Vertigo can be treated with chiropractic techniques and services. Vertigo can be caused by brain problems or problems in the central nervous system. The most common causes of vertigo come from:
Ear infection
Meniere’s disease
Head Trauma
Tumor
Migraine Headaches
Multiple Sclerosis
Complications from diabetes
Decreased blood flow to the base of the brain
Adjustments to the joints and soft tissue are used to relieve ear pain and stress on the nervous system. Even small stresses on the nervous system can cause inner ear problems and dizziness. The treatment we use at Ogden Wellness Center will most likely depend on what we find the cause to be for vertigo. Our chiropractic doctors will do a thorough examination when you come in for treatment.
In our office, we will target joints with improper movement and manipulate them. If there is misinformation about how the body is positioned and that there is some type of movement being communicated from the joints to the brain, it is usually in the neck and faulty motion patterns are a result.
Ogden Wellness Center helps with the symptoms of vertigo including:
Dizziness
Nausea
Spinning
Feeling out of control or out of touch with your body
