A Natural Remedy for Tinnitus

natural-remedy-for-tinnitus

Tinnitus (ringing in the ears) is among the most common health problems in the United States. Approximately 15% of the population experiences this condition. Those who have experienced a head trauma are most likely to have this issue.

What Causes Tinnitus

Any time there is an interruption to the sound waves travelling in the ear canal, it can result in tinnitus symptoms. Upon entering the ear, sound waves vibrate against three small bones in the inner ear. This causes the fluid that is in the ear to move, which sends messages to the brain. A tumor or excessive ear wax could be the cause of interference to this process, but there are other causes too.

Surprisingly, inner ear issues often originate in the upper neck, such as a misalignment to the uppermost vertebrae of the spine. Doppler ultrasound has been used to measure blood flow in the ear that comes from the vertebral arteries. These are the arteries that flow through the neck bones. If there is a shift out of proper alignment in these bones, it could potentially result in disruptions in blood flow to the ears. If there are different levels of blood flow in either ear, it could cause tinnitus symptoms.

Getting Relief from Tinnitus

Finding the best option for caring for ringing in the ears can be tricky, especially since the first thing doctors tend to offer for this problem is medication. This does not deal with the underlying problem, and since a misalignment of the upper spine could be what is causing your tinnitus, reaching out to an upper cervical chiropractor is a very practical option. This specialized niche of chiropractic care focuses on correcting spinal alignment of the top two vertebrae using a unique method that is both gentle and extremely precise. Once the subluxation has been dealt with, normal blood flow to the ears can resume, which can happen in as few as one or two adjustments. For complete relief that deals with the root of the matter, give us a call so we can further discuss your specific condition.
