There are many potential causes of dizziness. You need to have it checked out by a health care provider that will take a thorough history and perform an examination.
One of the more common physiological findings of cervical misalignment is dizziness. There is a neurological link between the vertebrae in the neck and the vestibular mechanism that controls balance. In my practice, I have found that dizziness often accompanies a subluxation in the neck. After a few treatments, the dizziness often goes away or is greatly reduced and improved.
