We all feel dizzy on occasion, whether we stand up too fast or stare at an optical illusion too long. However, these feelings pale in comparison to vertigo. Characterized by dizziness and a sense of motion or spinning, it can debilitate people in their daily life. 

Often, it makes people feel sick and interferes with their vision and hearing. At Hood Health & Wellness, we help our patients overcome this condition to find relief. 

Surprised? Schedule a neurological exam with our team to make a spinning world stand still. 

What are the Causes and Symptoms of Vertigo? 

It’s pretty straightforward to know whether you suffer from this condition. After all, the telltale signs are dizziness with a sense of spinning. However, it can lead to numerous other symptoms. 

• Lack of balance
• Headaches
• Nausea 
• Sweating
• Vomiting
• Tinnitus
• Swaying

This condition is common among those who have experienced some form of trauma to the head or neck. This trauma disturbs the pathways of nerves exiting the spinal column. 

However, there’s also the potential that it ties to the inner ear, your vestibular system. From the movement of particles to pressure changes and infections, there are several causes that contribute to your dizziness. 

How Chiropractic Care Can Help

At Hood Health & Wellness, our Flint chiropractors don’t just focus on a singular issue. We believe in the interconnectedness of the body and understand how an issue in one area isn’t always limited to that area. 

Through chiropractic care, we seek to address the symptoms you feel from vertigo as well as the root cause. When pressure on nerves causes pain or other symptoms, we work to alleviate that pressure. Often, we find that certain cases of vertigo tie back to improper function in joints that impact the spine and the messages sent to the brain. 

This disruption in transmission can lead to feelings of dizziness. Through chiropractic care, we work to correct the nervous pathways and promote clearer communication.
