This is a question we are frequently asked in our specialist ‘Dizziness and Balance Clinic’ at Physio-Life, and the answer is - ‘there could be several reasons’! 

Some of the most common symptoms presented are balance issues; motion sensitivity; the floor moving around; foggy head; headaches and nausea. 

 

Some of the most common conditions we come across are Benign Positional Paroxysmal Vertigo (BPPV); Labyrinthitis; Vestibular Neuritis; Meniere’s Disease; Vestibular Migraine; Vestibular Hypofunction and Mal de Debarquement Syndrome.  However, this list is not exhaustive. Sometimes, it may simply be that a cough or cold that has left a patient with residual dizziness.  Whatever the cause, there is treatment and diagnosis available.

How can we help?
