Vertigo/Dizziness

Seeking Natural Vertigo Relief in Kissimmee, Florida

Vertigo is just one of the symptoms of Meniere’s disease, which affects approximately 600,000 Americans (and about 45,000 more being diagnosed each year). The condition is also known for causing tinnitus, a feeling of fullness in the ears, and hearing problems. All of this affects quality of life both physically and emotionally.

In order to combat this disease, a clinical trial involved injecting a substance into the ear that is gel-like in nature. The gel provides a time release of steroids over a period of three months. This would be a great improvement over current steroid injects that can only provide about 15 minutes of relief for patients.

The FDA has not approved any medication specifically for Meniere’s treatment, and many options are invasive such as the injections mentioned above. Vertigo treatment is also limited. As a result, many are looking for alternatives.

Is Natural Relief of Vertigo Possible

Many individuals would prefer a natural and non-invasive method for coping with vertigo or Meniere’s disease. At the Pancake Wellness Center, we use the Atlas Orthogonal technique of upper cervical chiropractic to attempt to provide just that sort of care for our patients.

In one study, which involved 139 people suffering from Meniere’s disease, upper cervical care was able to decrease the level of disability caused from an 8.5 out 10 to just a 1.4 out of 10. Most patients only required 1-2 adjustments to see these dramatic results.

Upper cervical chiropractic is all about realigning the C1 vertebra to achieve maximum central nervous system potential. This helps to body to work optimally and may relieve vertigo and many other symptoms as well. If you are seeking natural treatment for vertigo, feel free to schedule a consultation to learn more about what upper cervical chiropractic care can do to improve quality of life.
