People who suffer from dizziness and vertigo often times say they experience anything from a ‘rocking sensation’ to ‘things around them spinning.’
Sufferers explain that the world around them seems to be swaying or moving – not necessarily the person who is experiencing the problem.
A lot of people brush the feeling off as some sort of common lightheadedness.
But the National Institute of Health reports that 40% of adults will deal with an episode of vertigo at least once.
With age comes more occurrances of vertigo. In addition, females report more occurrances than males.
Chronic dizziness or vertigo is often due to an inner ear infection or problem such as labyrinthitis.
Head position changes are controlled by the vestibular system. Labyrinthitis inflames the inner ear which then affects the vestibular system.
Within the fluid are tiny hairs that send impulses to the brain. The brain uses this information to identify your body’s orientation.
When the canals, or labyrinths, are irritated, the brain often receives the wrong information. The result is objects spinning or moving around you.
This illness often goes undiagnosed and therefore untreated, but can cause unpleasant, even disturbing episodes for the person suffering with it.
Treatment is often not sought due to the seemingly temporary nature of the problem.
Unfortunately, the problem reoccurs and can last weeks or even longer.
It can be easy to assume dizziness is a result of something common (like being really tired) so a number of episodes don’t necessarily present a pattern.
Drugs are normally prescribed once the condition is finally recognized.
The drugs are usually either promethazine or meclizine. Some brand names are Dramamine, Meni-D, Adgan and others.
Medication of course addresses the symptoms but not the actual cause. In addition, drugs almost always have additional side effects.
What most people don’t know, and something that most doctors don’t tell you, is that there could be another cause for your vertigo. Something besides an inner ear infection.
It could be caused by muscle tension.
Feeling dizzy or experiencing vertigo can be the result of muscle tension around the ears and/or eyes as well as the body line that extends to the pelvic bone.
Medication does not have to be the only option. I created a natural program that has provided relief for thousands of sufferers.
By performing a few simple exercises every day, they soon report no more dizzying episodes.
I have been amazed myself by both the results people have experienced and by the number of results. You too should start feeling focused in no time.
