If you are suffering from vertigo, chiropractic care may help. There are many different causes of vertigo, and it is important to pin down the underlying issues that may be causing it. The right vertigo and dizziness treatments with Dr. Troy Wilson in Hastings, NE, could greatly improve your quality of life.
What Causes Vertigo?
Vertigo is often caused by or related to the position of the head and neck. It can result from calcium crystals being out of place in the inner ear. Fluids and tissues in the inner ear are used to sense gravity, balance, and motion, and displaced calcium crystals can disrupt the body's senses.
Medication can be another cause of vertigo and dizziness. In some cases, chiropractic care can resolve the underlying issues causing symptoms. If so, you may not have to take medication or may not need to take it as often. This could reduce dizziness and prevent other side effects.
Vertigo often becomes more common as you get older. Many people experience vertigo while flying in an airplane or other vehicle. However, vertigo can occur pretty much anywhere. If you live near Hastings, NE, and want to undergo vertigo and dizziness treatments, come work with Dr. Wilson at Hastings Family Chiropractic.
Treating Vertigo
While certain medications can treat vertigo, it's often best to use chiropractic care. Unfortunately, medication can be habit-forming and provides only temporary relief. Chiropractic care, on the other hand, can provide lasting relief from vertigo and many other issues. The right adjustments can encourage the calcium crystals in your inner ear to migrate to where they won't disrupt your senses.
Vertigo may be a result of an acute traumatic event such as a car accident or slip and fall. Unfortunately, such incidents can knock the body out of proper alignment. By properly aligning tissues and treating injuries, you may enjoy lasting relief.
