  1. How Can A Chiropractor Help With Vertigo? Chiropractors may help with vertigo, depending on its underlying cause.

  2. About Us hiropractors approach vertigo from the perspective that misalignments or dysfunctions in the spine, particularly in the cervical spine (neck), can affect nerve function and blood flow, potentially contributing to vertigo symptoms. While the effectiveness of chiropractic care for vertigo can vary depending on the underlying cause of the condition.

  3. Symptoms Of Vertigo Vertigo is a sensation of spinning or dizziness, often described as feeling like you or your surroundings are moving or spinning when they are not. It's important to distinguish vertigo from general dizziness or lightheadedness, as vertigo typically involves a sense of motion. • Headaches or migraines • Nausea • Vomiting • Ringing in ears • Sweat • Jerking eye movement • A feeling of fullness inside the ear

  4. What Are Different Types Of Vertigo? Central Vertigo Central vertigo refers to vertigo that originates from a problem within the central nervous system, particularly in the brainstem. Peripheral Vertigo Peripheral vertigo refers to vertigo that originates from a problem in the peripheral vestibular system.

  5. Cervicogenic Vertigo Cervicogenic vertigo is a type of vertigo that is believed to originate from dysfunction or abnormalities in the cervical spine (neck). Diagnosis Of Vertigo Diagnosing vertigo involves a comprehensive evaluation to identify the underlying cause of the symptoms. Eye Movement Testing Eye movement testing, also known as oculomotor testing, is a diagnostic procedure used to assess the function.

  6. Dix Hallpike Maneuver The Dix-Hallpike maneuver is a diagnostic test used to diagnose benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), a common vestibular disorder. Rotary Chair Testing Rotary chair testing is a diagnostic procedure used to assess vestibular function and evaluate the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR). Cervical Joint Assessment Cervical joint assessment, also known as cervical spine assessment, is a diagnostic procedure used to evaluate the function.
