Ménière's Disease Treatment in Sarasota, Florida
At Lavender Family Chiropractic in Sarasota, we specialize in helping patients with Meniere’s disease find lasting relief through precise upper cervical chiropractic care. Our gentle, non-invasive approach targets misalignments in the upper neck that may disrupt inner ear function, improving balance, reducing vertigo, and enhancing overall nervous system health.
Understanding Ménière's Disease
Meniere’s disease is a chronic inner ear disorder that affects balance and hearing. It is characterized by episodes of vertigo (a spinning sensation), tinnitus (ringing in the ears), a feeling of fullness in the ear, and fluctuating hearing loss. These symptoms are typically caused by an abnormal buildup of fluid in the inner ear, which disrupts the normal function of the vestibular and auditory systems. While the exact cause is not fully understood, contributing factors may include upper cervical misalignment, head trauma, autoimmune responses, or viral infections. Meniere’s disease can significantly impact daily life, causing anxiety, fatigue, and unpredictability in symptoms.
How Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care Can Help
Upper cervical chiropractic care can help individuals with Meniere’s disease by addressing misalignments in the upper neck that may interfere with the nervous system and inner ear function. The upper cervical spine, particularly the atlas (C1), plays a critical role in regulating blood flow, cerebrospinal fluid, and nerve communication to the brain and inner ear. Misalignments in this area can create pressure and inflammation, potentially triggering or worsening Meniere’s symptoms like vertigo, tinnitus, and ear fullness. By gently and precisely realigning the upper cervical spine, chiropractic care restores balance, reduces interference, and supports the body’s natural ability to heal and function properly.
Our Approach At Lavender Family Chiropractic
At Lavender Family Chiropractic in Sarasota, our approach to Meniere’s disease is rooted in precision, technology, and gentle care. We begin with advanced 3D CBCT imaging and paraspinal thermography to accurately identify upper cervical misalignments that may be disrupting inner ear and nervous system function. Our doctors use specific, non-invasive upper cervical adjustments—without popping, twisting, or cracking—to restore alignment and promote natural healing. Each care plan is personalized based on individual needs and scan results. Our goal is to help patients with Meniere’s disease experience fewer vertigo episodes, improved balance, and better overall wellness by addressing the root cause, not just symptoms.
