If you have been seeking a reliable vertigo chiropractor based in Vancouver, WA, Balanced Living Chiropractic is the right place to start. Patients who want to recover from this inner ear condition can rely on us for help. 

Meniere’s disease is an ailment of the inner ear that may present four major characteristics:

  • Vertigo – a false sensation of spinning
  • Tinnitus – a ringing noise in the ears
  • Hearing loss
  • A feeling of fullness in the affected ear

Meniere’s disease can be unpredictable as it may strike out of the blue then not come back for a undefined amount of time. Some people experience episodes of Meniere’s more frequently than others, and episodes can occur for a few days or even weeks at a time, causing anxiety in anticipation of the next occurrence. Meniere’s often holds patients back from accomplishing regular day-to-day activities.

 

What Causes Meniere’s Disease?

Researchers and doctors need to conduct further studies before they can collectively agree on the exact cause of Meniere’s. However, they agree that it involves the excessive accumulation of fluid in the inner ear.

The labyrinth is responsible for our balance and hearing, and these functions may be limited when too much fluid is present. The excess fluid, called endolymph, distorts signals received by the brain about the body’s location in its surroundings. This is believed to be the possible cause of Meniere’s disease symptoms.

 

How to Overcome Meniere’s Disease

Medications are often the first recommendation to manage specific symptoms of Meniere’s. However, there are multiple ways to get relief, such as the following:

  • Prescription drugs to get rid of dizziness 
  • Water pills to fight fluid retention
  • Injection of antibiotics into the ear
  • Dietary changes
  • Surgery (if all else fails)
  • Upper cervical chiropractic care

 

Why Get Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care?

Here at Balanced Living Chiropractic in Vancouver, Washington, we have been successful in aiding Meniere’s patients by ensuring the proper function of the nervous system. Fluid often builds up in the inner ear when there is a misalignment in the uppermost bone of the neck, the atlas bone. A misalignment in this critical bone, even by a slight angle, can obstruct the sending of proper signals to the brain via the brainstem. Due to this situation, Meneire’s disease can develop over time. 

By using upper cervical chiropractic care, a technique that is both gentle and drug-free, we continue to have success in helping patients improve their Meniere’s. Once the atlas vertebra returns to proper alignment, the body can begin to function at its best once again, providing people with much-needed relief.
