In this video Dr Gordon D. Elder of The Blair Chiropractic Clinic in Lubbock Texas explains how Upper Cervical Chiropractic can be used for dizziness and ear ringing.
The interesting thing about hearing and the ears is that in 1895 modern chiropractic started out because a deaf guy got his hearing back when his back was adjusted. So from the beginning of modern chiropractic there has been an obvious connection between the ears and the spine. Of course it makes sense as nervous system is controls everything in the body and the spine is what protects the nervous system as it comes out from the bottom of the skull. There are actually nerves that come from the middle of your back and go up into your ears. Whether for hearing or for balance they help control a lot.
So what happens is that when those nerves get pinched it can cause things like dizziness or it can cause ringing in the ears. I think in the last 17 years I’ve had one person with ringing in the ears where it didn’t improve from blair upper cervical chiropractic treatment. The rest of the people who came in with ringing in the ears again, usually they came in for headaches or neck pain or back pain but also had ringing in the ears. I don’t remember any other case that did not get well once I adjusted them.
The same goes for dizziness. I’ve had people who actually come to me for dizziness, and although it often is not an on/off switch, once we correct the neck and the body starts rebalancing that dizziness becomes less and less and less. Sometimes it can take a couple of days.
Sometimes a couple weeks, sometimes even a few years, but if we can fix it and we can fix it in a natural way then how is that not worth it?
