Q. Can stress-related dizziness also be treated?
Yes, stress-induced autonomic dysfunction often causes dizziness. Acupuncture/herbs that stabilize autonomic nervous system are combined with Chuna correction.
📝 Detailed Answer
There is. However, it is a judgement attached after other causes have been excluded.
Dizziness associated with anxiety or tension is often described as a floating feeling, a hazy feeling, or a feeling of being about to collapse, rather than a spinning sensation. It characteristically worsens in crowded places or where visual stimulation is complex, such as a supermarket.
There are also cases where hyperventilation is entangled in it. When you are tense, breathing speeds up, and as a result dizziness and tingling in the hands and feet arise.
In Korean medicine treatment we do not look at the dizziness alone but regulate sleep and the state of tension together.
However, anaemia, thyroid dysfunction, arrhythmia and orthostatic hypotension also produce a similar feeling, so it is safer for blood tests and a blood pressure check to come first.
