How Chiropractic Can Help Treat Vertigo and Improve Balance

When you’re a kid, there’s nothing quite like spinning around and around until you’re too dizzy to walk straight. But when that feeling happens as an adult, it isn’t quite so much fun. If you experience dizziness or vertigo, our chiropractors may be able to help. Here’s how chiropractic care can help treat vertigo and improve balance and coordination.

Treat Vertigo with Chiropractic

Vertigo is a condition that causes the feeling of dizziness to the point of nausea. There are different categories and causes of vertigo, but they are usually either issues with the brain or inner ear organs. 

Vertigo can be treated with medications, but for those seeking natural treatment options, chiropractic may be the solution. Chiropractic manipulations that return the upper cervical spine to proper alignment may reposition the neck back to optimal position, putting a stop to dizziness. 

There are other adjustments that can specifically help with equilibrium along with at-home balancing exercises and eye exercises. 

Improve Balance and Coordination with Chiropractic

Along with dizziness, chiropractic care can also help improve balance and coordination. Life’s day-to-day activities move the bones, joints, and muscles out of alignment. Chiropractic care restores proper alignment of the musculoskeletal system. This helps restore the system to proper balance, which is an important part of improving balance and coordination. When the body is properly aligned and the nervous system is able to communicate efficiently and effectively, it can help address improper signals the brain is experiencing during vertigo episodes. Lifestyle advice in regard to diet, posture, and specific exercises can also be beneficial.
