In brief

The neck's link to feeling unsteady

Some dizziness is linked to tension and restricted movement in the upper neck and the structures around the skull, which influence how the body senses balance. Where this is the case, gentle osteopathy may help ease that tension and support a steadier sense of orientation.

A careful, gentle approach

Dr Boudet begins with a thorough conversation, then works softly on the neck, jaw and cranial region using cranial and cranio-sacral techniques. Movements are slow and comfortable, and he adapts carefully to how you feel, checking in with you throughout.

  • Gentle work on the upper neck
  • Cranial and cranio-sacral techniques
  • Attention to your comfort at each step

Why medical assessment comes first

Dizziness and vertigo have many causes, some needing medical care. Please have new, severe or persistent dizziness assessed by a doctor, especially with hearing changes, fainting or neurological signs. Osteopathy has its own reading of the body and works in dialogue with that assessment, as a peer.

Frequently asked questions

Balance and vertigo

Can osteopathy cure my vertigo?

No. Osteopathy does not cure vertigo or diagnose its cause, and no result is guaranteed. Where dizziness is linked to neck or cranial tension, gentle work may help ease that tension and support comfort, alongside medical assessment.

Is it safe if I feel dizzy?

Dr Boudet uses slow, gentle techniques and adapts carefully to how you feel. He also checks that your symptoms have been medically assessed. If anything is unclear or concerning, he will refer you back to your doctor before continuing.

Should I see a doctor first?

Yes. New, severe or persistent dizziness should be assessed by a doctor, particularly with hearing changes, fainting or neurological signs. Osteopathy then brings its own approach, focused on easing the physical tension involved.

How many sessions might help?

It varies with each person and each cause. Some notice a difference after a couple of gentle visits, others do not, and Dr Boudet is honest about that. He focuses on careful, realistic support rather than promises of a cure.
