Dizziness is a common symptom we encounter at our practice. It can be distressing and disruptive, and we sympathise with what you’re going through.

Why See a Chiropractor for Dizziness or Vertigo?

You may wonder how chiropractic care can help with dizziness or vertigo.

Spinal alignment issues, particularly in the upper neck, can contribute to a condition known as cervicogenic dizziness. This occurs because the structures and nerves of the cervical spine are closely linked to the brain’s balance receptors.

However, dizziness and vertigo can arise from many causes, some more serious than others. That’s why obtaining an accurate diagnosis is crucial. If we determine that your symptoms require specialist care, we’ll refer you to the appropriate healthcare professionals.

Our Approach to Treating Dizziness and Vertigo

At Byron St Chiropractic, we take a holistic approach to managing dizziness and vertigo. We focus on the entire neuromusculoskeletal system, which includes:

• The spine as a whole

• Extremity joints (e.g., hips, knees)

• Muscles, ligaments, and tendons

• The nervous system

We also emphasise lifestyle changes to help improve your condition and prevent future episodes.

Diagnosis and Treatment

The first step is ensuring an accurate diagnosis. We achieve this through:

• A detailed clinical history

• Comprehensive physical examinations, including neurological, orthopaedic, and musculoskeletal assessments

• Additional diagnostic tests, such as X-rays, if necessary

Once we’ve identified the root cause of your dizziness or vertigo, we’ll explain our findings in simple, clear terms. From there, we’ll design a personalised treatment plan tailored to your condition and goals.

If we believe you require care from another provider, we’ll ensure you’re referred to the right professionals.

Prevention and Education

To support your recovery and help you achieve lasting results, we’ll provide:

• Strategies to prevent future dizziness

• Stress management tips

• Ergonomic advice for your daily activities
