Vertigo has a cause. Let's find it.
Vertigo — that feeling that the room is spinning — can be debilitating. It makes driving dangerous, working difficult, and everyday tasks unpredictable. And most people have no idea that a chiropractor can help.
There are two common types of vertigo Dr. Brad sees. Cervicogenic vertigo is caused by dysfunction in the upper cervical spine — misalignment or restricted joints that disrupt the signals your brain uses for balance. BPPV is caused by displaced crystals in the inner ear that confuse your vestibular system.
Both types respond well to specific treatments. Cervical adjustments for neck-related vertigo. Repositioning maneuvers (like the Epley technique) for BPPV. Dr. Brad determines which type you have and treats accordingly.
Why chiropractic works for vertigo.
Identifies the Type
Not all vertigo is the same. Dr. Brad performs specific tests to determine whether yours is cervical, vestibular, or another cause entirely.
Often Resolves Quickly
Many vertigo cases — especially BPPV — can be resolved in just one or two sessions with the right repositioning technique.
No Medication Needed
Anti-vertigo medications mask symptoms and cause drowsiness. Treating the cause provides actual resolution without side effects.
Restored Balance
Proper cervical alignment and vestibular function mean stable balance, confident movement, and safe driving again.

Diagnostic Testing
Dr. Brad performs the Dix-Hallpike test and cervical examination to determine whether your vertigo is vestibular (inner ear) or cervicogenic (neck-related).
Targeted Treatment
For BPPV: specific repositioning maneuvers to guide displaced crystals back into place. For cervicogenic vertigo: gentle cervical adjustments to restore proper alignment and nerve function.
Follow-Up
Many patients feel significant improvement after one session. Dr. Brad will be honest about whether additional visits are needed and what to expect going forward.
Dr. Brad treats every patient with the same philosophy: thorough diagnosis, personalized care, and real results. Your treatment plan is built around your specific condition and goals. Come when you need to. Stop when you're feeling good. You're in control of your care.
