Reduce dizziness and improve balance with chiropractic care in Welwyn. Support neck function and nervous system regulation at GH Chiropractic.



Dizziness or vertigo can be unsettling, affecting balance, concentration, and confidence in everyday activities. Many people don’t realise that the neck plays a considerable role in balance and spatial awareness — and that issues in the upper cervical spine can significantly contribute to dizziness.


At GH Chiropractic in Welwyn, we examine the spine, posture, and nervous system as a whole to identify the root cause of dizziness and provide natural methods for restoring balance.


Why Dizziness Happens


Dizziness is often influenced by:

  • Neck joint restriction

  • Muscle tension affecting blood flow or nerve input

  • Poor posture, especially forward-head positioning

  • Reduced proprioception, affecting the body’s sense of position

  • Vestibular imbalance (inner ear involvement)

  • Stress and anxiety, which heighten sensitivity to movement

  • Previous whiplash or neck trauma

  • Eye-head coordination issues


The neck houses nerves and receptors essential for balance — when these signals become distorted, dizziness can occur.


How Chiropractic Helps with Dizziness


Chiropractic care promotes a healthy balance by enhancing movement, posture, and nervous system communication.


Benefits include:

  • Restoring movement in the cervical spine

  • Relaxing overactive muscles, improving blood flow and reducing tension

  • Enhancing proprioceptive input, helping the brain better understand neck and head position

  • Supporting neuroplastic changes, helping your brain recalibrate balance responses

  • Improving posture, reducing strain on balance-related structures

  • Supporting the vestibular system, especially when dizziness is linked to neck movement

  • Reducing stress, which often heightens dizziness symptoms


Patients frequently report feeling clearer, steadier, and more confident after chiropractic care.


Tip #1 - Move slowly when changing position

Allow your brain time to adjust.


Tip #2 - Gentle neck stretches

Slow, controlled movements reduce muscular tension.


Tip #3 - Balance exercises

Try standing on one leg, heel-to-toe walking, or gently shifting your weight.


Tip #4 - Hydration

Dehydration can intensify dizziness symptoms.


Tip #5 - Improve posture

Aligning your head over your shoulders reduces strain on balance receptors.


A Whole-Body Chiropractic Approach


A single factor rarely causes dizziness. Poor posture, tight muscles, reduced neck mobility, eye strain, breathing mechanics, and anxiety can all contribute. Chiropractic assesses and addresses these relationships to support long-term health and wellness.


If dizziness is affecting your comfort or confidence, GH Chiropractic in Welwyn can help restore clarity, calm, and balance to your daily movement.
