What Is Meniere’s Disease?

Meniere’s disease is a chronic inner ear disorder that causes recurring episodes of vertigo, ear fullness, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), and even hearing loss. These symptoms can come on suddenly and last for hours, leaving people feeling off-balance, nauseous, and mentally drained. While the cause of Meniere’s is still not fully understood, there is growing evidence that poor drainage and pressure in the inner ear may play a role.

The Upper Cervical Connection

Few patients realize that the upper cervical spine plays a major role in the circulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood flow to the brain and ears. A misalignment of the atlas (C1) vertebra can obstruct these pathways—contributing to the symptoms seen in Meniere’s disease.

In fact, many Meniere’s patients report a history of head or neck trauma prior to the onset of their symptoms. This is where upper cervical chiropractic may provide a breakthrough.

How Wave UCC Supports Patients With Meniere’s

At Wave Upper Cervical Chiropractic, we begin with a detailed scan of your upper neck using 3D CBCT technology. This allows us to see if there is any misalignment impacting the nerves and vessels connected to the inner ear. If present, we use precise, gentle adjustments to restore alignment and improve fluid dynamics and nerve communication.

While every case is unique, many patients report reduced vertigo episodes, less ear pressure, and even partial recovery of hearing after a series of upper cervical adjustments.

Why Choose This Approach?

• Non-invasive and drug-free
• Targets the root cause, not just symptoms
