Upper Cervical Care for Ménière's Disease

i suffered with attacks from Ménière's Disease every seven days (sometimes less) until I saw an Upper Cervical Care chiropractor. My episodes would last for 12+ hours and were debilitating. It was affecting my work life greatly. The episodes stopped by the time I had two upper cervical treatments. Please look it up online there is new research on this procedure for Ménière's disease. There are search tools to help you find an Upper Cervical Care Chiro in your area. No bone cracking!!!!! Don't be afraid and let me know if it works for you!!!

I struggled for years with vertigo attacks from Menieres. Tried everything. Then someone suggested upper cervical care. It has given me my life back. Anyone with meniers disease must find an upper cervical care specialist. It will change your life.

Just curious about how many adjustments you have had and/or weeks/how often you receive upper cervical adjustments and gained relief? My husband started treatment the beginning of March this year and was going as much as three times a week. He's now going 1-2/week. Our insurance only pays for 12 visits per year so it's all out of pocket now. He has relief for maybe the day of or the next and goes right back to complaining about his symptoms and not wanting to do anything with me. It all reads very promising until you're paying $400 a month for it and no major signs of recovery in sight...

The vertigo stopped by the second treatment and that was in October. I still get some pressure in my ears from time to time and I have been back once since the fall which was just this past weekend for a shoulder problem. Is his Chiro NUCCA certified?
If it's not working he likely needs to try something else! Upper cervical care shouldn't last a long time you should only have to go a few times a year.
Also try finding someone who specializes in vertigo. GP's don't know what to do with it.

    I've had Meniere's for almost 50 years now.  It took several years to get a diagnosis. The symptoms aren't as severe anymore and I have periods of complete remission, but I still have problems from time to time, primarily tinnitus, fluctuating hearing and pressure.  I had the shunt surgery and that helped somewhat, but other than that, nothing I have tried has helped or made a difference. ...
