Vertigo is the unsettling sensation that you or your surroundings are moving, tilting, or spinning when you are standing completely still. While inner ear issues are a well-known cause, a significant percentage of chronic dizziness stems from miscommunications in the upper neck, known as cervicogenic vertigo.
How Cervicogenic Dizziness Presents
- Episodes of unsteadiness or spinning triggered by rapid, sudden neck movements
- Feeling dizzy or off-balance when working at a computer or tracking moving objects
- Dizziness that occurs alongside chronic neck pain, stiffness, or headaches
- A generalized, vague feeling of floating, lightheadedness, or instability
Restoring Balance at the Neurological Root
The joints in your upper neck are packed with specialized balance receptors (proprioceptors) that tell your brain where your head is in space. When these top neck joints are misaligned, they send conflicting signals to your brain, creating dizziness. Our precise, gentle cervical corrections clear these pathways to safely restore normal balance.
