According to a Partnership for New York City survey, two-thirds of Manhattan office workers expect to return to their offices after Labor Day. Getting back to this crucial semblance of normalcy can present for some a new problem—issues with vertigo. This condition can range from being a minor nuisance to an indication of a serious underlying condition.
According to a study directed by Antony Darby, an engineering professor at the University of Bath, those who work near the top of tall buildings such as high rises have reported problems with nausea, anxiety and fear (particularly on gusty days) and headaches.
Dizziness is not the only symptom associated with this condition. Here are some of the other symptoms of vertigo that often accompany dizziness:
- Ringing in the ears or problems hearing
- Difficulty maintaining balance
- Blurred vision
- Feeling fatigued
- Double vision
Chiropractic to Rebalance the Body & Calm the Nerves
Chiropractic treatment is a gentle and safe way to address many of the causes of vertigo.
