What Is Dizziness and Vertigo?

Vertigo is a spinning sensation; dizziness can also feel like light-headedness or unsteadiness. Common treatable causes include benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), neck-related (cervicogenic) dizziness and balance-system changes after injury.

Common Symptoms

  • Spinning with head movements or rolling in bed
  • Unsteadiness or poor balance
  • Light-headedness
  • Nausea
  • Neck pain or stiffness with dizziness

Common Contributing Factors

  • Loose inner-ear crystals (BPPV)
  • Neck injury or stiffness
  • Concussion or whiplash
  • Inner-ear inflammation
  • Reduced balance training with age

When to Seek Medical Care Right Away

Call 911 for dizziness with sudden weakness, numbness, facial droop, trouble speaking, double vision, severe headache or chest pain.

How We Approach Dizziness and Vertigo

Dizziness can be frightening and is often dismissed; we take every description seriously. We screen for medical causes first, then test positional, neck and balance function to pinpoint the source and treat it.

  • Restoring the movements you use every day. We retrain rolling in bed, looking up, turning while walking and moving confidently in busy places, so progress shows up in your real life, not just on the treatment table.
  • Constant core activation. Core and hip strength for steady balance.
  • Proper functional movement patterns. We coach how you hinge, squat, push, pull, carry, step and rotate, so load is shared across the whole body instead of piling up in one area.
  • Proper respiratory mechanics. Calm breathing to reduce the anxiety and muscle guarding that often come with dizziness.
  • Looking past the symptoms. Especially with severe or long-standing problems, we take the time to consider every potential cause, including inner ear, neck, vision, blood pressure, medications and previous head injuries.
  • A plan built for you. Nobody is built the same or has been through the same things, so no two treatment plans are alike. Your plan is shaped around your history, your goals and how you respond.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a chiropractor treat vertigo?

Dr. Vickers has training in vestibular and nerve rehabilitation and treats common causes such as BPPV after screening for medical causes.

What is BPPV?

It is vertigo caused by small crystals shifting in the inner ear. It often responds well to specific head-positioning maneuvers.

When should dizziness be checked by a doctor?

Any dizziness with stroke warning signs is an emergency. We refer for medical evaluation when needed.

Do I need a referral, and do you take insurance?

No referral is needed. We accept health insurance as an out-of-network provider, as well as auto insurance claims and workers’ compensation claims, and every service can also be paid directly or through a monthly membership. Call (303) 465-6332 or request a free consultation to get started.
