Vertigo / Vestibular
Vestibular physiotherapist : Regain Your Balance and Quality of Life
How our vestibular physiotherapist can help?
Vestibular therapy helps Vertigo, which is a sensation of spinning or tilting, often accompanied by feelings of unsteadiness. If you experience vertigo, you might feel like you’re spinning, swaying, or being pulled in a particular direction. It’s as if the world around you is in motion when it’s not. Let me delve into the details:
- Causes:
- BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo): This occurs when tiny calcium particles in the inner ear become dislodged and disrupt the normal balance signals sent to the brain.
- Meniere’s Disease: An inner ear disorder linked to fluid buildup and pressure changes, causing vertigo, ringing in the ears (tinnitus), and hearing loss.
- Vestibular Neuritis or Labyrinthitis: Usually related to infection (often viral), leading to inflammation in the inner ear nerves responsible for balance.
- Other Causes: Head or neck injury, brain issues (like stroke or tumor), certain medications, and migraines can also trigger vertigo.
- Symptoms:
- Spinning Sensation: Feeling like you’re spinning or moving.
- Lightheadedness: A false sense of motion.
- Unsteadiness: Loss of balance.
- Accompanying Symptoms: Nausea, vomiting, abnormal eye movements (nystagmus), headache, sweating, and ringing in the ears.
- Treatment:
- Vestibular Rehabilitation: Physical therapy to strengthen the vestibular system.
- Canalith Repositioning Maneuvers: Specific head and body movements to treat BPPV.
- Book Appointment at Olive Physio: Treatment depends on the underlying cause, and some cases resolve without intervention.
