Now the question remains: how does one cope with dizziness, and is there any way to get rid of it?
Almost everyone has had a spell of dizziness at one time or another. This is generally harmless until it becomes a regular occurrence. Then it is vital to find out if there is something causing the dizziness. Interestingly, an underlying cause of dizziness is often due to misaligned bones in the upper cervical region. Thankfully, this is something that can be easily corrected by seeking the care of a specialist.
Here at Precision Spine Specialists in Brentwood, TN, we offer our patients a pain-free alternative to help them cope with dizziness. It involves special x-rays to locate the exact location of the misalignment. We then use a gentle method that allows the bones to move back into place naturally rather than forcing them by cracking or popping the neck. Once adjusted, the damage is repaired and the pressure placed on the brainstem by the misalignment is removed. This allows the body to communicate better about where it is located in its environment. The end result is often an improvement in dizziness.
