Defying BPPV and Dizziness with Exercise

August 20, 2023

Do you find yourself constantly battling the overwhelming symptoms of BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo)? Does the world around you spin uncontrollably, leaving you feeling off-balance and disoriented? If you've recently started receiving atlas bone adjustments for BPPV relief, you're on the right track to reclaiming your life and defying dizziness. But did you know that incorporating specific exercises into your routine can further enhance the effectiveness of these adjustments? 

In this article, we will explore how exercise can play a vital role in managing BPPV and overcoming dizziness. We’ll be sharing with you gentle stretches to targeted strengthening exercises that will guide you in regaining your stability through exercise.

The Role of Exercise in Managing BPPV

Exercise is a powerful tool for managing your vestibular condition and overcoming the debilitating effects of dizziness. That is because engaging in exercise stimulates the release of endorphins, which can improve your mood and reduce stress and anxiety – factors that can affect your BPPV symptoms. 

Additionally, regular exercise helps to strengthen the muscles that support your balance, enhances coordination, and improves vestibular function. By incorporating exercise into your routine, you are empowering yourself to take an active role in managing BPPV and regaining control over your life.

Best Exercises for Improved Stability

Combining exercise with atlas bone adjustments can significantly improve your balance, stability, and overall well-being. Here are some exercises to consider:

  • Yoga Poses: Engage in yoga poses like the Tree Pose or the Warrior Pose, which focus on balance and stability.
  • Neck Rolls: Gently roll your neck in clockwise and counterclockwise directions to improve flexibility and relieve tension. 
  • Leg Lifts: Stand behind a chair for support and lift one leg to the side, front, and back, engaging your core muscles for stability.
  • Seated Balance Exercises: Sit on a stability ball or chair and practice lifting one foot off the ground while maintaining your balance. Gradually increase the duration of each hold.
  • Standing Heel-to-Toe Walk: Take small steps forward, placing the heel of one foot directly in front of the toes of the opposite foot. This exercise improves coordination and balance.

Remember to perform these exercises in a safe and controlled manner, and consult your Upper Cervical Chiropractic doctor for personalized guidance.

Atlas Bone Adjustment for Lasting BPPV Relief

Atlas bone adjustment, also known as upper cervical chiropractic care, is a safe and effective approach to relieving BPPV symptoms. This technique focuses on correcting misalignments in the atlas vertebra, which can disrupt the communication between your nervous and body systems. 

A trained upper cervical chiropractor applies gentle, targeted pressure to restore proper alignment. If you're seeking a holistic approach to managing your condition and defying dizziness, exercise and atlas bone adjustment is the best combo. Both are non-invasive and drug-free, which addresses the root cause of your symptoms.
