What Causes Vertigo and Dizziness?
Mot of us take the ability to stand upright for granted. In fact, we can stand still without needing to hold on to something for support.
Thanks to our balance system, healthy people can do these things.
Vertigo or dizziness results from a balance system that is not functioning properly. I will refer to these conditions as the same as the problems for both originate from the same source.
Everyone has experienced some form of dizziness or vertigo. Perhaps an ear infection left you wobbly on your feet. Or, you’ve suddenly jumped up from a sitting position very quickly and felt the need to sit right back down.
Luckily for most people it is only a temporary situation that quickly blows over and no solution needs to be sought.
There are people who don’t have the luxury of knowing the feeling is temporary. They will be afflicted with chronic vertigo or dizziness every few months or even every day.
An improperly functioning balance system causes the chronic dizziness or vertigo.
Our three balance systems are located in the
body sense eyes ears
Luckily, we can still go about most of our activities even if one of the balance systems is not functioning properly.
However, if two or even three of those balance systems become ineffective, we have a big problem. That is why it is so important to strengthen all three balance systems even if one or two are too weak to completely heal them.
How can we improve our balance system?
You see, 90% of the time, dizziness and vertigo are caused by tension in the muscles around our balance system - the eyes, the ears or the body line from the top of our skull to the pelvic bone.
Ear impairments will cause you to view your surrounds slightly differently than the balance system in your eyes do.
The brain is then trying to process a variation of information coming from the two perceptions. This results in a dizzy feeling.
If you’ve ever tried eyeglasses that are too strong for you, you know exactly what I mean.
A perfectly functioning balance system in the ears and body would help you continue functioning when the eyes are not up to par. However, normally, dizziness still occurs because it just is not likely that both of the other systems will be in perfect balance.
If the muscles tied to each balance system are loose and strong though, you can function properly.
You do not even have to do this perfectly. If you only bring each of these systems to 70% function, that is enough for you to never feel dizziness or vertigo again. That is exactly what my natural vertigo and dizziness program does.
