Vertigo & Dizziness Relief in Houston

If the room is spinning, your balance is off, or you're living in fear of the next episode β€” there may be a structural cause that's been overlooked.

You Deserve Answers β€” Not Just Another Prescription

Vertigo is more than dizziness. It's the fear of driving, the anxiety before standing up, the lost days spent lying still waiting for it to pass. If you've been told "we can't find anything wrong" or handed another round of medication that barely takes the edge off, we understand your frustration.

Many cases of chronic vertigo β€” including Meniere's disease, BPPV, and unexplained dizziness β€” are connected to a misalignment of the atlas vertebra at the top of the spine. This misalignment can disrupt signals between your brain and inner ear, alter blood flow, and trigger the spinning sensations that control your life.

The good news: when the atlas is gently corrected, the vertigo often resolves β€” sometimes dramatically.

β€œAfter 15 years of vertigo episodes that controlled my life, I was skeptical that a gentle adjustment could do what medications never did. Within three weeks, my episodes dropped from daily to nearly zero. Dr. Ennis gave me my life back.”

How NUCCA Addresses Vertigo at Its Source

The atlas vertebra sits millimeters from your brainstem and directly influences the vestibulocochlear system β€” the network responsible for balance and spatial orientation. When the atlas shifts out of alignment (often from an old injury, fall, or accident), it can:

β†’ Compress or irritate nerves that control balance
β†’ Alter blood flow and cerebrospinal fluid drainage
β†’ Create chronic inflammation around the inner ear
β†’ Keep the nervous system locked in a stress response

A NUCCA correction restores proper atlas alignment with a gentle, precise touch β€” no twisting, no cracking. As alignment is restored, nerve communication normalizes, fluid flow improves, and the vertigo cycle can finally break.

What the Research Shows

Upper cervical care for vertigo and Meniere's disease is supported by growing clinical evidence:

Meniere's Disease Study: Patients receiving upper cervical corrections reported significant reductions in vertigo frequency and severity, with many achieving complete resolution of episodes after a course of care.
Cervicogenic Vertigo: Research published in peer-reviewed journals demonstrates that correcting atlas misalignment can restore vestibular function and eliminate chronic dizziness in patients who hadn't responded to conventional treatment.

At Ennis Chiropractic, we've seen these results firsthand β€” patients who went from daily vertigo episodes to living episode-free within weeks of beginning care.
