Treatment for Cervical Vertigo

Vertigo is the medical term for severe dizziness or feeling a spinning sensation in the body.

A person may feel as though the world is spinning around them. They may also feel as if they are spinning around, even as they stand still.

Vertigo often comes about due to an inner ear problem or other condition, which may throw off the body’s center of balance. However, with cervical vertigo, the cause of the dizziness is in the neck.

Cervical vertigo itself is generally a symptom of an underlying issue, such as a neck injury. A person will often experience symptoms of dizziness after a triggering event, typically from turning their head suddenly. This dizziness may last for a few minutes to a few hours.

Symptoms may be worse in some people after they exercise, or after minor things such as sneezing or getting up too fast.

There are a few different causes of cervical vertigo, such as trauma to the neck or poor posture. Our treatment involves addressing the underlying structural issues that tend to accompany cervical vertigo.
