What is Vertigo and Vestibular Disorders
Vertigo is more than just a feeling of dizziness; it’s a sensation that the world is spinning around you. It often stems from issues within the vestibular system—a complex network of inner ear structures, nerves, and brain areas responsible for maintaining balance and spatial orientation. Vestibular disorders can arise from various causes, such as:
- Inner ear infections
- Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV)
- Meniere’s disease
- Vestibular migraine
- Head trauma or injury
- Aging-related changes
If left untreated, these conditions can significantly impact your quality of life. Symptoms such as unsteadiness, nausea, and visual disturbances can hinder daily activities and increase the risk of falls.

Common Vestibular Disorders We Treat
- Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV): BPPV is one of the most common causes of vertigo, resulting from dislodged calcium crystals in the inner ear. Treatment often involves canalith repositioning maneuvers, such as the Epley maneuver, to move the crystals back into place.
- Meniere’s Disease: This chronic condition causes episodes of vertigo, hearing loss, tinnitus, and a feeling of fullness in the ear. Management includes dietary changes, medication, and in some cases, surgical intervention.
- Vestibular Neuritis and Labyrinthitis: These inflammatory conditions affect the vestibular nerve or inner ear, often resulting from viral infections. Treatment includes anti-inflammatory medications and vestibular rehabilitation.
- Vestibular Migraine: Characterized by dizziness and balance issues during migraine episodes, this condition requires a multifaceted approach involving migraine management, lifestyle adjustments, and vestibular therapy.
- Persistent Postural-Perceptual Dizziness (PPPD): PPPD is a chronic condition where dizziness persists despite the resolution of an initial vestibular event. Treatment focuses on vestibular rehabilitation and cognitive-behavioral therapy.
