In-Home Physiotherapy Can Help Relieve the Symptoms of Vertigo

Vertigo is the complaint of dizziness, often reported as the room spinning, caused by vestibular (inner ear) dysfunction or cranial nerve dysfunction. It affects 42% of adults over their lifetime. Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is the most common cause of vertigo. It is caused by crystals that break free from the utricle and float freely in the inner ear. Other causes of dizziness include vestibular migraines, cervicogenic vertigo (upper neck dysfunction), vestibular neuritis, Meniere’s disease, concussion, perilymphatic fistula, and vestibular Schwannoma.
