KST A to Z
Meniere’s Disease
John Foley, DC
Bellmawr, New Jersey
Meniere's disease symptoms often include dizziness, vomiting, tinnitus, loss of balance, ear fullness, headache, and eventual hearing loss.
The patient had an episode of the above symptoms every 8 days, 4 episodes over about a month's time. The symptoms would last several hours, and the imbalance was to the point that he could not stand during the episodes.
I adjusted the sphenoid in many directions over several visits: occiput, hard palate, C1, C5 anterior, hump pattern.
The next visit was on the 8th day, when an episode was due. The patient felt very mild symptoms, but no adjustment was needed. The visit after that included the right orbit, coronal/sagittal suture junction, and the right styloid process. The temporal bone never needed adjusting.
The patient hasn't had an episode or any symptoms in three months.
