Do you often feel like the world is spinning around you, even when you're standing still? Or experience sudden unsteadiness that makes it hard to go about your day? If so, you’re not alone. Vertigo and dizziness affect millions of people and can significantly impact quality of life.
At Isleworth Pain and Injury Clinic, our team of experienced chiropractors and physiotherapists is here to help you regain your balance and confidence.
What Is Vertigo?
Vertigo is more than just a feeling of being dizzy — it’s a specific type of dizziness characterised by the sensation that you or your surroundings are spinning or moving. This can be triggered by simple head movements, changes in position, or even occur spontaneously. It often comes with symptoms like:
- Nausea or vomiting
- Sweating
- Abnormal eye movements (nystagmus)
- Balance issues
- Difficulty focusing
Common Causes of Vertigo and Dizziness
Vertigo isn’t a condition itself, but a symptom of an underlying issue. Some of the most common causes include:
- Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) – Small crystals in the inner ear become dislodged and interfere with balance signals.
- Vestibular Neuritis or Labyrinthitis – Infections that affect the inner ear or the nerve connecting it to the brain.
- Meniere’s Disease – A disorder of the inner ear involving fluid buildup and pressure.
- Neck injuries or misalignments – Especially whiplash or cervical spine issues that affect nerve and blood flow.
- Migraines – Some migraines can trigger vertigo episodes without a headache
- Poor posture or a sedentary lifestyle – Can lead to muscular imbalances and tension affecting the nervous system.
How Chiropractic & Physiotherapy Can Help
At Isleworth Pain and Injury Clinic, we offer holistic and evidence-based treatments to address the root causes of vertigo and dizziness, not just the symptoms.
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic adjustments can correct spinal misalignments, especially in the cervical spine (neck), which may affect nerve signaling and blood flow to the inner ear and brain. Many patients with cervicogenic dizziness — dizziness originating from the neck — experience significant relief through gentle, targeted adjustments.
Physiotherapy
Our physiotherapists use a range of techniques including:
- Vestibular rehabilitation exercises
- Balance training and postural correction
- Manual therapy for neck and shoulder tension
- Customised home exercise programs
These therapies work to retrain your brain to better process balance signals and reduce symptoms of vertigo over time.
What to Expect at Your Appointment
When you visit us with complaints of dizziness or vertigo, our team will conduct a comprehensive evaluation, including:
- Medical history and symptom analysis
- Neurological and musculoskeletal assessment
- Balance and vestibular function tests
From there, we’ll develop a personalised treatment plan designed to restore your stability, reduce episodes, and enhance your overall well-being.
When to Seek Help
While occasional dizziness can be harmless, recurring vertigo or ongoing balance problems should never be ignored. It can be a sign of underlying conditions that need professional attention. If you're experiencing any of these, it’s time to get evaluated.
- Frequent dizziness lasting more than a few seconds
