Acupuncture for Dizziness — Natural Relief & Balance Recovery

What Is Dizziness?

Dizziness is a common but often misunderstood symptom. Some people describe it as feeling lightheaded, others as a spinning sensation (vertigo) or loss of balance. While it may pass quickly, recurring dizziness can disrupt work, travel, and even simple daily tasks.

Common Causes of Dizziness

Dizziness has many possible causes. Identifying the root cause is essential for effective treatment.

1. Inner Ear Disorders
•    Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) — triggered by head position changes.
•    Labyrinthitis / Vestibular Neuritis — inflammation of the balance nerve.
•    Meniere’s Disease — inner ear fluid build-up causing dizziness, hearing loss, and ear pressure.

2. Circulatory Issues
•    Low blood pressure when standing up quickly (orthostatic hypotension).
•    Poor blood circulation to the brain.
•    Anemia reducing oxygen supply.

3. Neurological Conditions
•    Vestibular migraine.
•    Stroke or mini-stroke (TIA).
•    Multiple sclerosis.

4. Systemic & Metabolic Factors
•    Low blood sugar.
•    Thyroid imbalance.
•    Side effects from medications.

5. Psychological Factors
•    Anxiety or panic attacks.
•    Chronic stress and fatigue.

How Acupuncture Helps with Dizziness

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), dizziness may be linked to:
•    Liver Yang Rising — excess liver energy disturbing the head.
•    Phlegm-Damp Obstruction — fluid and mucus blocking clear Yang.
•    Qi & Blood Deficiency — insufficient nourishment to the head.
•    Kidney Essence Deficiency — decline in essence affecting brain and ear.

Acupuncture works by:
•    Improving circulation to the head and inner ear.
•    Clearing phlegm and dampness.
•    Nourishing vital organs (liver, kidney, spleen).
•    Calming the mind and reducing anxiety.
