Are You Struggling with Dizziness and Vertigo?
Living with dizziness and vertigo can make even simple daily tasks feel overwhelming and exhausting. These symptoms can disrupt your balance, concentration, and overall quality of life, making it difficult to enjoy activities you once loved. For many patients in Winnipeg, the cause is never properly identified, and treatment that doesn't address the source provides only temporary relief.

What Type of Vertigo Do You Have?
Understanding the cause of your dizziness is the foundation of effective treatment. The two types most commonly seen at Gelley Chiropractic are:
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV): triggered by specific head movements, BPPV causes brief but intense spinning sensations due to displaced crystals in the inner ear. It is the most common form of vertigo and responds well to targeted repositioning maneuvers performed in-clinic.
Cervical Vertigo: dizziness that originates from dysfunction in the upper cervical spine. When the joints, muscles, or nerves of the neck are under stress or misaligned, the signals they send to the brain about balance and body position become distorted. Cervical vertigo symptoms often include dizziness that worsens with neck movement, accompanied by neck stiffness or tension headaches. Chiropractic care is one of the most effective treatment approaches for cervical vertigo because it targets the structural cause directly.

Non-invasive Treatment: Chiropractic care offers a drug-free and non-surgical approach to managing dizziness and vertigo, appealing to those seeking natural treatment options. No medication, no referrals required.
Holistic Approach: Rather than just treating symptoms, chiropractors aim to address underlying causes by improving spine and nervous system function. This makes chiropractic care particularly effective for cervical vertigo, where the root cause is structural.
Personalized Care: Chiropractors customize treatment plans to individual needs, considering factors such as medical history, symptoms, and lifestyle.
Frequently Asked Questions
Without treatment, cervical vertigo can persist for weeks or months, particularly if the underlying spinal dysfunction goes unaddressed. With appropriate chiropractic care, many patients notice meaningful improvement within a few sessions, though the full course of treatment depends on the severity and duration of the condition.
Your first visit begins with a detailed health history and assessment of your cervical spine, balance, and neurological function. Dr. Gelley will identify whether your dizziness is cervicogenic, positional, or related to another cause, then walk you through a personalized treatment plan based on those findings.
No referral is needed. You can book directly at Gelley Chiropractic Office in St. Vital, Winnipeg. Dr. Gelley will conduct a thorough assessment to determine the type and cause of your vertigo before recommending a treatment plan.
Both can play a significant role. Poor posture — particularly forward head posture from prolonged screen use — places sustained load on the upper cervical spine, which can aggravate or trigger cervical vertigo. Stress causes muscle tension that compounds this further, tightening the structures around the neck and base of the skull. Addressing these contributors is part of the broader care plan at Gelley Chiropractic.
