A person with vertigo has the illusion that the room is spinning or their own body is spinning. The percepted movement that occurs with vertigo is unidirectional and rotational.
The perception of this motion comes with a minor difference, according to Dr Jeffrey Clark DC. Objective vertigo is when the patient feels the environment is moving around them, whereas, subjective vertigo is when the patient feels they are turning in the environment.
A significant distinction sets vertigo apart from dizziness. In dizziness, patients in NE feel a loss of balance, light-headedness or nausea but there is no motion perception.
Here’s what your Omaha Chiropractor will do: get your history, examine you thoroughly and let you undergo neurological and orthopaedic tests to find out what is really causing your vertigo and dizziness. Basing on the results, they will create a plan of management suited specifically to your case.
