Do you sometimes feel as if the world is spinning around you, even when you’re perfectly still? You’re not alone; vertigo is a common condition that many people struggle with, often making it difficult to perform everyday activities. Fortunately, chiropractic care has been shown to be an effective method to treat vertigo, helping patients regain their balance and wellness.
What is Vertigo?
Vertigo is a type of dizziness where you feel as though your surroundings are moving or spinning. This condition is typically provoked by issues in the inner ear, though it can also arise from complications in certain parts of the brain.
Common Causes of Vertigo
- Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV): This is the most common form of vertigo where tiny calcium particles clump up in the inner ear. The symptoms are triggered by specific changes in the position of your head.
- Vestibular Neuritis or Labyrinthitis: This involves inflammation around the important nerves in the inner ear that help control balance.
- Migraine: Migraines can impact the inner ear and also cause episodes of vertigo as one of the symptoms.
