What is Vertigo

Vertigo is a very unsettling sensation of the room spinning around you. It can last anywhere from a few seconds to days. It is most often triggered when you move from lying to sitting, rolling over in bed, or moving your head suddenly.

Vertigo is often accompanied by headaches, neck pain, pressure or ringing in the ears, loss of hearing or nausea.

Vertigo can be so severe that you walk into walls or fall over. You will want to avoid any movement to stop the world spinning.

How can Keystone help? 

At Keystone Chiropractic & Yoga, our chiropractors take a holistic approach to Vertigo, we assess the whole body to look for the underlying issues rather than just treating symptoms.

There are many causes of Vertigo and an accurate diagnosis is important to make sure your treatment assesses these underlying issues. Your initial appointment will include a review of what has lead up to your Vertigo and a physical examination to assess both the underlying problem and the compensatory stresses and strains this has caused.

For any treatment to be effective both the cause and compensatory issues need to be addressed. We will work with you to provide a personalised treatment plan to help you get back to doing all the things you love as quickly as possible.

Your treatment will be aimed to restore balance and mobility to your body. It will include a combination of soft tissue releases and mobilisations, chiropractic adjustments (where appropriate), and exercises and stretches to correct postural imbalances and help prevent future episodes of Vertigo.

 We also have yoga and tai chi classes to improve flexibility and fitness in the long term.
