Causes of DizzinessVestibular Rehabilitation by Susan Herdman.
That, you would think, would please chiropractors. Yes, it does, but .. and it's a very big BUT .. with the recent prominence given to stroke, extremely rare though it may be, many chiropractors have become increasingly anxious about giving that much needed adjustment. A recent survey of 29 000 patients with neck related conditions revealed that 70% plus stated confidently that they obtained immediate relief, BUT 4.8% stated that they had worsening of symptoms.

Susan Herdman's authoritative compilation of articles by more than twenty experts in the field, now in its third edition, is a must on every chiropractor's desk, if he or she wants to treat the dizzy patient. Imagine a simple technique that can be done in the chiropractic clinic that can safely and quickly address vertigo?
