Can a Physio treat Dizziness?

The most common presentation that My Jaw Physio sees, is a scenario where a patient wakes up that morning, turns their head to look at the alarm clock and suddenly the whole room starts spinning! The patient usually reports needing to lie very still for a minute or so, waiting for the spinning to stop. After this horrible start to the day, our patient is very careful with their movements, to not set the spinning off again. Often there has been no precipitating factor for the onset of vertigo, but at other times a car accident or sudden jolt the day before may have occurred.

Physio can be very effective for Vertigo. Treatment often involves performing some positional manoeuvres, firstly to assess and then treat the dizziness. We also send our patients home with some personally tailored exercises to treat themselves if this ever reoccurs.
