Many people suffer from migraines combined with vertigo. Here is a case study showing how chiropractic can help these conditions:

Dizziness (vertigo), neck pain and migraines. A twelve-year-old boy with a long history of routine, recurrent dizziness, chronic neck pain and migraines began chiropractic care. His symptoms had caused him to be absent from school more than half of the time the previous seven years.

He received chiropractic adjustments to the cervical (neck), mid-thoracic (mid back) vertebrae and the sacrum. After the first week of chiropractic care he reported a cessation of his headaches and neck ache. His vertigo attacks decreased in frequency and severity, then ceased. His school attendance improved dramatically. (12)
