Feeling Unsteady? Find Your Balance with Natural Vertigo Relief!
That dizzying sensation, the world spinning around you – vertigo can be incredibly unsettling. At Natural Way Chiropractic, we understand how disruptive vertigo can be, and we’re dedicated to helping you find natural, effective relief.
Understanding the Imbalance
Common Causes of Vertigo
This is the most common cause, where tiny calcium crystals in your inner ear become dislodged and irritate the balance canals. This leads to brief episodes of intense vertigo triggered by specific head movements.
An inflammation of the vestibular nerve, which connects the inner ear to the brain, often caused by a viral infection. This can cause prolonged vertigo, nausea, and vomiting.
This inner ear disorder involves a buildup of fluid in the inner ear, leading to episodes of vertigo, hearing loss, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), and a feeling of fullness in the ear.
Misalignments or injuries in the neck can affect blood flow and nerve function, impacting balance and causing vertigo.
Some migraines can be accompanied by vestibular symptoms, including vertigo, dizziness, and sensitivity to motion.
Certain medications, head injuries, and neurological conditions can also contribute to vertigo.

Your Path to Stability
How Natural Way Chiropractic Can Help
At Natural Way Chiropractic, we focus on addressing the underlying causes of vertigo through a comprehensive, natural approach:
Our chiropractors are trained in performing the Epley maneuver, a series of head movements designed to reposition the dislodged calcium crystals in your inner ear, providing rapid relief from BPPV.
If cervical vertigo is suspected, gentle adjustments to the neck can help to restore proper alignment, improve blood flow, and reduce nerve irritation.
We may recommend specific exercises and therapies to help your brain compensate for inner ear dysfunction and improve balance.
We’ll offer advice on lifestyle modifications, such as stress management, dietary changes, and ergonomic adjustments, to support your overall vestibular health.
Muscle tension in the neck and upper back can contribute to vertigo. Soft tissue therapy can help to release this tension.
