Vertigo is the illusion of movement of the body or of the environment. The percepted movement that occurs with vertigo is unidirectional and rotational.
There is a small distinction with the perception of this motion, says Dr. William Johnson DC. Objective vertigo is described as the sensation of the environment spinning around the patient whereas in subjective vertigo, it is the patient who feels he is turning around his surroundings.
Vertigo and dizziness can be differentiated by significant symptoms. When the patient in GA describes his feelings as a loss of balance, light-headedness or nausea but there is no motion perception, he is describing dizziness.
Your Fort Oglethorpe Chiropractor will perform a thorough history and examination including orthopaedic and neurological testing to determine the true cause of your vertigo and dizziness. Basing on the results, they will create a plan of management suited specifically to your case.
