What do you do when your whole world is spinning? Chances are, the sensation is all in your head — a condition known as vertigo. This serious disorder can be downright debilitating, leaving you with severe dizziness that stays with you even when you are standing or sitting still.
Vertigo is typically the result of a breakdown in communication between your brain and inner ear. At the office of The Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation Center, our highly qualified team of physical therapists will listen to your concerns and develop an appropriate treatment plan. When properly diagnosed, your vertigo can be effectively treated with certain exercises.
The most common type of vertigo is called benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), which comes from the movement of crystals around the inner ear, and disturbing your center of balance.
BPPV: common signs
Strategic maneuvers to your head by our trained physical therapists seek to reposition the crystals inside the inner ear so you can regain stability. At the office of The Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation Center, we believe that nobody should have to endure constant feelings of dizziness. We invite you to learn more about our services and how our approach to wellness can help for a wide range of conditions. For more information, give us a call today.
