What does the psychosomatics of dizziness and nausea hide?

What is behind such malfunctions in the body as dizziness and nausea - physiology or psychosomatics ?

Nausea and dizziness are common symptoms of a large number of diseases and pathologies. First of all, these are characteristic signs of poisoning, infections, gastrointestinal diseases, concussions, and emotional shocks. Even such a wonderful state of a woman as pregnancy is often also accompanied by regular nausea and dizziness. You should not ignore these signals from your own body. It is necessary to consult a specialist and undergo a comprehensive health examination. But what to do in a situation where the body’s indicators are normal, no pathologies have been detected, and nausea and dizziness do not go away?

A good option is to attend the free webinar by Konstantin Dovlatov “How to turn life crises into resources.”

On it you will receive a lot of information about how psychosomatics manifests itself and how to treat it.

Psychosomatics, a science that studies and tracks the influence of stress and negative emotions on the formation of physical illnesses, can help in this situation. After all, the realities of our time are such that it has already been scientifically proven that more than 85% of diseases have metaphysical roots. For a deeper and more accurate understanding of the hidden sources of these pathologies, it is necessary to take into account the opinion of world-famous authors in the field of research into the psychosomatics of diseases.

Interpretation of nausea in psychosomatics from famous experts

After conducting a large number of observations, the famous author Louise Hay came to the conclusion that the following thoughts and feelings could be possible sources of these disorders. She recommends using positive statements - affirmations - to eliminate them (see table):

To combat the invisible causes of these disorders in the body, the author recommends repeated repetition of the above positive attitudes. The famous doctor Luule Viilma states: the feeling of anxiety that nothing will work out can provoke nausea, according to psychosomatics. But the emergence of dizziness is facilitated by the abandonment of one’s spiritual needs in sacrifice to the whims and desires of others.

If simple affirmations do not give a lasting result, the issue may be in generic scenarios.

Psychosomatics expert from Canada Liz Burbo, in her work “Your body says: “Love yourself,” sees the metaphysical cause of nausea in the victim’s feeling of threat due to some event or person. This provokes disgust in the patient, as it contradicts his plans. Answering the question of how to get rid of nausea and the psychosomatics of the pathological condition, the expert advises the patient to change his attitude towards what is happening in his life. Analyze and ask yourself why a person or thing causes me fear and disgust. Perhaps the person is overly dramatizing the situation and perceives what is happening to him biasedly. Liz Burbo also recommends that the victim try to love himself for who he is. A similar psychosomatics in dizziness is an attempt to avoid something that sprinkles salt on an unhealed mental wound; absent-minded, reckless actions of the patient.

Psychosomatics of dizziness

It's hard to believe, but dizziness often occurs due to psychological problems.

They are often caused by: - ​​information overload; - problems of choice; - fears; — dispersing one’s forces on several different things at once.

Let's look at each of these circumstances in more detail.

The fact that information overload , I think, is not a revelation to anyone. Probably, many of the readers can remember situations when, during “dense” preparation for exams or when mastering large amounts of new information, they felt slightly dizzy.

It’s not for nothing that people say: “there is so much new information that your head is spinning,” “your head is swelling from these scientific works,” etc.

I’ll tell you a secret that sometimes such “information” dizziness happened to me too - at those moments when, in preparation for writing another book, I had to “shovel through” a huge amount of scientific literature, for some unknown reason overloaded with complex pseudoscientific terms.

The situation gets even worse if information overload is combined with an attempt to keep a large amount of diverse information in your head.

Let's say, if you simultaneously begin to seriously study the Chinese language, musical notation, higher mathematics and, for example, biology, then after a week you will almost certainly encounter difficulties in further assimilation of new information.

Then you will feel how your level of criticality and clarity of thinking has decreased. Even later, you will most likely get dizzy (is this why many of our teenagers look “stupid” because in schools they are drilled into their heads with 5-10 diverse subjects at the same time, without taking into account the difference in the abilities of students?)

It’s another matter if you teach the same disciplines in cycles, as they do in senior years at institutes.

For example, devote 3 months exclusively to the Chinese language, then another 3 to musical notation, etc. Then a slight “fogginess” of the head will appear only in the first weeks of studying a new subject, since at this time the brain “automatically tunes” to a completely new one, unusual and incomprehensible information.

Disease history

Anton Egorovich headed a company selling computer components. Things were going well. But one day an excellent opportunity arose to expand the business and increase the company’s income by 5-6 times. However, this required covering related areas of trade and studying new regulations, customs and legal documents.

It is clear that assistants were required to carry out these large-scale tasks. It was beyond the power of one person to master the entire volume of completely diverse information. But Anton Yegorovich was a stubborn man, and also distrustful. He did not consider it necessary to initiate anyone into the affairs of the company, much less discuss with anyone issues related to its management.

Therefore, Anton Egorovich decided to do without assistants and, out of habit, shouldered all organizational matters on his shoulders. But, despite all his efforts, the man was never able to “digest” the huge amount of new information necessary to expand his business.

As he immersed himself in the topic, Anton Yegorovich’s head, in his own words, became more and more “woolly.”

The man began to stagger from side to side and became dizzy. At this stage, Anton Yegorovich realized that he could not do without medical help, and turned to me.

A course of manual therapy combined with the use of drugs that improve cerebral circulation helped bring the man back to his senses. But to prevent the situation from repeating itself, Anton Yegorovich needed to reduce his mental load.

Fortunately, he listened to my advice - to hire assistants or gradually “climb only one peak”, without being scattered on everything at once.

Having carefully weighed everything, Anton Yegorovich found a compromise solution: he involved his wife and his 20-year-old son in managing the company. Since then, Anton Egorovich has not contacted me about dizziness.

The method of overloading and dispersing consciousness is often used by gypsies during “gypsy hypnosis sessions.”

By chatting up the “client”, “loading” him with a non-stop flowing stream of verbal information, abruptly switching the “client’s” attention from one topic to another, the gypsies put the person being treated into a trance state, turn off his consciousness and deprive him of the opportunity to critically comprehend what is happening. After which they force the person to pay out all his money.

The same method of influencing the psyche is now also used in various sects. But if the gypsies, having defrauded a person, immediately disappear with the “loot,” then the leaders of religious sects keep their charges in a state of intoxication for months or even years.

In addition, sectarians skillfully manipulate the consciousness and subconscious of their clients, forcing them to memorize various mantras or obscure “prayer formulas.” And they finally deprive their students of critical thinking, manipulating feelings of fear and guilt: in most religious sects all doubts and dissent are prohibited. The leader of any sect will claim that only his religion or idea is true, and all others are wrong and sinful.

After such statements by the leader, any of his wards fall into a stupor and are afraid to even for a second doubt the words of their “shepherd”. This is probably why among the participants in such religious “get-togethers” there are many who are forced to consult doctors about dizziness and a feeling of lightheadedness or “stuffiness” in the head.

Problems of choice in situations where a person has to make a difficult choice between someone or something, but he cannot make this choice for a long time and therefore is in a “suspended” state, can also lead to dizziness.

Disease history

One of my married patients, Alina, fell in love with a work colleague. He reciprocated Alina's feelings. Their love was not momentary - it developed for quite a long time and gradually grew into a persistent need to be together not only during the day at work, but also at night.

Alina felt that she needed to leave her husband and establish a new life with her lover. However, as often happens, a number of circumstances (an established life, pity for her husband) and some doubts prevented her from taking a decisive step.

The hesitation “to leave - not to leave”, “to open up to my husband - not to open up” lasted about a year. And for about 8 months of this period, Alina suffered from dizziness and a feeling of “lightheadedness.”

Even manual therapy for the girl’s displaced upper cervical segment of the spine brought her relief for a maximum of 2-3 weeks. Then the dizziness returned.

Clarity and clarity of perception returned to Alina only when she thoroughly weighed everything and nevertheless made the final choice in favor of her beloved. Together with making a decision, the girl, in her words, “everything fell into place and became clearer in her head.” Almost immediately after this, her dizziness stopped.

Frankly speaking, I don’t know how fears affect the occurrence of dizziness. But, observing patients, I can definitely say that many of those who have been in a state of depression and fear for a long time also experience persistent dizziness.

Disease history

At the reception there is a girl Inna, 26 years old. Suffers from severe dizziness combined with attacks of nausea, fainting and a feeling of “lightheadedness”.

The girl fell ill about six months ago. It all started when cold air from the air conditioner blew through her neck at work in the summer. The next day, Inna’s neck muscles became inflamed, that is, classic cervical myositis developed.

Typically, cervical myositis is perfectly treated with anti-inflammatory drugs. They were assigned to their girl. Under the influence of the medications, the pain and inflammation clearly began to fade away and would have passed without a trace in a maximum of 2 weeks.

But to her misfortune, Inna, on the advice of doctors, decided to take a tomographic image of the cervical spine. This image revealed a protrusion (bulging) of the intervertebral disc measuring 3 mm.

In fact, bulging discs of such small sizes can be found in almost every healthy person. Especially at the time of exacerbation (with myositis) - this is simply a reaction of the body and intervertebral discs to a spasm of inflamed muscles.

However, some doctors, instead of calmly telling the patient about this well-known fact, on the contrary, try to intimidate him and “spin” him for money. Which is what happened in this particular case.

After looking at the tomographic images, the doctor advised Inna to undergo a neurosurgical operation “to remove a hernia of the spine” (as he called it) and offered his services as an intermediary between the girl and the paid neurosurgical department. “Otherwise,” the doctor said, “your arms and legs may fail.”

The doctor's statement left Inna in a state of shock. And although she was smart enough to refuse the operation, from that day on Inna was seized by terrible panic.

Even after her neck stopped hurting a long time ago, the girl kept thinking about her “hernia in the neck.” All day long, Inna searched for literature on spinal hernias. And the more books she read about this disease, the more she “twisted” herself and expected some kind of terrible outcome.

Then Inna began visiting doctors. Some were competent and decent, tried to calm Inna down and assured her that she could forget about such a tiny hernia. But Inna did not believe them. Others further intimidated the girl and siphoned money out of her for “exclusive treatment,” thereby increasing the panic.

Eventually, Inna’s panicked state transformed into illness: dizziness and a feeling of lightheadedness appeared. It was with these symptoms that Inna came to see me.

After talking with Inna for about 20 minutes, I more or less understood what the root of the problem was. But it also became clear to me that it was useless to convince the girl. With all her thoughts and emotions, she was already “hooked” on the disease. And then I decided to play along with Inna a little.

With a confident look, I told the girl that now we would treat her hernia (although I was 70% sure that by that time there was no trace left of the protrusion - after all, the inflammation and spasm of the neck muscles had long disappeared).

Having laid the patient on the couch, I performed several manipulations on her cervical spine, aimed primarily at eliminating dizziness. But he explained to the girl that “I’m pulling out the hernia with my hands.” Then he rubbed the usual warming ointment into his neck, but presented it as “an ointment for resolving a hernia.”

And although I was tormented by my conscience, since I usually do not resort to such tricks and always try to be honest with my patients, in this case the “strategy” was justified. Moreover, in the end this little trick bore fruit.

Immediately after my manipulations, Inna felt much better physically and, more importantly, much more confident psychologically.

In the second session, we consolidated the success with the help of manipulations aimed at the upper cervical segment of the spine and the elimination of dizziness. And after I was convinced that the patient’s neck was fine, I sent Inna to do a repeat tomography of the cervical spine.

Tomographic images confirmed what your humble servant already knew - there was no trace left of the protrusion (bulging) of the intervertebral disc.

For Inna, such a conclusion meant a miracle. But the main thing is that she immediately calmed down. And since the girl was already feeling well physically by that time, no further therapy was required.

How to get rid of nausea using folk remedies?

• Pre-prepare a vodka infusion of citrus peels . Pour two or three tablespoons of crushed orange or lemon peels into half a liter of vodka. Let it brew for a week. Take as a solution of thirty drops of infusion in one hundred milliliters of water before meals.

• For nausea due to mild food poisoning, drink lemon juice diluted with filtered water.

Worsened nausea and dizziness, based on the findings of researchers of the psychosomatics of diseases, are directly related to the negative state of the victim’s psyche and the stress he has experienced. But does it make sense to react to stress and emotional negativity with dizziness and nausea? When chronic dizziness and nausea are driving you crazy, don't despair. Using the methods of “ Spiritual Integration ”, you get a real chance to get rid of the sources and consequences of these pathologies.

Diagnosis and treatment

Positional maneuvers are used for diagnosis.

With their help, the doctor determines in which of the semicircular canals the otolith is located and which ear is affected. When performing the maneuver, the patient experiences dizziness and nystagmus; the otolith topic is determined by the direction of eye movement. Once we have determined which semicircular canal is affected, the diagnostic maneuver turns into a therapeutic one. The main purpose of which is to return the otoliths to their place, that is, to the vestibule of the labyrinth. There are a certain number of maneuvers for this; each semicircular canal has its own maneuver. A therapeutic maneuver is a successive change in the position of the body and head with a certain time exposure.

For the treatment of benign positional vertigo, the FIRST NEUROLOGY clinic provides drug and non-drug support using German Zimmer physiotherapy; ozone therapy, mesotherapy with vascular drugs, and post-isometric relaxation have proven effective.

Headache, metaphysical causes according to experts

We have already talked a lot about the prerequisites for cephalalgia, but let's also look at the theories of popular psychosomatists.

Psychosomatics of Louise Hay headaches

The psychosomatic cause of cephalalgia according to Louise Hay lies in uncertainty, fear, anxiety, and worry about the future. Such a person is self-critical, considers himself worse than others, and does not accept himself. Affirmation for healing: “I love and value myself. I look at myself with eyes full of love. I'm confident in my future."

V. Zhikarentsev

Zhikarentsev sees the cause of cephalgia in an inferiority complex and excessive self-criticism. Affirmation for healing: “I love and approve of myself. My talent is limitless. My mind is constantly evolving."

Liz Burbo and the causes of headaches

The head represents the individual's individuality. According to Liz Burbo, a headache indicates that a person is scolding himself. Reproaches and low self-esteem are the main cause of cephalalgia. Such a person places excessive demands on himself and sees in himself the shortcomings of all humanity.

What else could be the cause of cephalalgia:

• guilt;
• fear of criticism from others;
• non-acceptance of oneself or one’s individual actions;
• fear of going forward or leading something;
• excess information, the desire to understand and learn as much as possible, to control everything.

In addition, a person who suffers from headaches is sure that he was unfairly offended or could not be appreciated. Such a person is constantly offended, envies someone and blames life and other people for all his failures. He constantly compares himself to other people.

What to do: allow yourself to be yourself. You need to stop depending on the opinions of others, stop trying to be who they want you to be. Get to know your needs and give yourself permission to live life to the fullest. Don't overexert your intellect or suppress your essence.

Valery Sinelnikov and headache

According to V. Sinelnikov’s theory, illness shows us mistakes. Cephalgia is a cry from the subconscious that we are doing something wrong. Maybe you want to finish a work project even though you're already exhausted and exhausted. Or you constantly take on too many responsibilities. Or you want to get away from family conflicts, but you can’t decide to divorce or don’t know how to solve the problem in another way. Cephalgia is a chance to rest, prevent overload, and move away from the situation.

The second cause of cephalalgia is hypocrisy. Perhaps you communicate with those who are unpleasant to you, but pretend that you are happy about this communication. The discrepancy between feelings, thoughts and behavior causes intrapersonal conflict. It is necessary to solve the problem and restore harmony within yourself.

What else causes headaches, according to Sinelnikov:

• low self-esteem and excessive self-criticism;
• critical attitude towards others;
• non-acceptance of oneself and other people;
• fear;
• distrust of the world.

It is necessary to recognize your uniqueness and the uniqueness of other people, allow yourself and them to be themselves. It is necessary to treat cephalalgia as a signal. Don’t mask it with pills, but find the cause and eliminate it.

Headache Baginski Bodo J, Sharamon Shalila

The reason is chronic stress. It can be caused by two factors:

• pressure and excessive demands from others;
• stubbornness, fixation on one problem and inflated demands on oneself.

Stop controlling your feelings and reactions for a while, let everything take its course. Allow yourself to experience any emotions, fulfill any desires. This is necessary for relaxation and recovery. After this, there will be a place in your soul for love and joy.

Headache Guru Ar Santem

Cephalgia is associated with will. Possible reasons:

• you put pressure on people, impose your opinion on them;
• people put pressure on you, impose their opinions on you (you allow them to impose).

Psychosomatics of headaches in children

In children, illness always serves one of three purposes - to attract the attention of parents, to receive the love of parents, to express protest. Cephalgia is most often a child’s protest in response to parental overprotection or authoritarian upbringing with an abundance of prohibitions.

Why does my head still hurt (psychosomatics of children):

• jealousy of a younger brother or sister (trying to get attention);
• conflicts and fights between parents;
• domestic violence, including against children;
• parental divorce;
• moving;
• change of place of study;
• other changes in usual conditions and way of life.

In adolescence, vegetative-vascular dystonia often develops. Prerequisites: hormonal changes, chronic stress, conflicts in relationships with peers and parents, learning difficulties. The entire teenage period is stressful, so vascular spasms in this case are not uncommon.
