Chiropractic Ear Adjustment 

​

Procedure:

  • The Chiropractor will examine the patient's ear and surrounding structures. 

  • They may use a special instrument called an otoscope to visualize the ear canal. 

  • The chiropractor will then apply a gentle, high-velocity, low-force manipulation to the ear. 

  • This manipulation may cause a clicking or popping sensation and often drainage of the Eustachian tubes, which can relieve pressure in the ears and sinuses.

 

Conditions Treated: 

  • Chiropractic ear adjustments are commonly used to treat the following conditions:

  • Ear infections (otitis media)

  • Eustachian tube dysfunction

  • Tinnitus (ringing in the ears)

  • Vertigo

  • Pain in the ear or jaw

 

Benefits: 

  • Relieves ear pain and discomfort

  • Improves drainage of the ear

  • Reduces inflammation

  • Restores normal ear function

 

Safety and Effectiveness: 

Chiropractic ear adjustments are generally considered safe when performed by a qualified Chiropractor.

 

Conclusion: 

Chiropractic ear adjustments may be a potential treatment option for certain ear-related conditions. It is important to consult with a qualified Chiropractor to discuss the risks and benefits of this therapy and determine if it is appropriate for you.
