Understanding Peripheral vs. Central Vertigo
Vertigo relief in Boiling Springs often begins with identifying the type of vertigo you’re experiencing—peripheral or central. While both types can disrupt your life with symptoms like dizziness, nausea, and imbalance, their causes and treatments differ significantly.
Peripheral vertigo is the most common form. It originates from issues in the inner ear, which controls balance. If you’ve ever experienced vertigo when turning your head quickly or getting out of bed, this may be the type you’re dealing with.
Central vertigo stems from dysfunction in the brainstem or central nervous system. It is less common but may be more serious and long-lasting.
These conditions affect how the brain interprets balance and spatial orientation.
Yes. Misalignments in the upper cervical spine—specifically the atlas (C1)—can impact blood flow, brainstem function, and even the Eustachian tubes. These disruptions may worsen symptoms, regardless of origin.
