Tired of Dealing with Dizziness and Vertigo?
If you're experiencing sudden spells of dizziness, a sensation of spinning, or unsteadiness while walking, you're not alone — and you’re in the right place. At Origin Rehab, we help patients just like you regain balance, reduce fear of falling, and get back to daily life with confidence.
What is Dizziness and Vertigo?
Dizziness is a broad term describing sensations of lightheadedness, imbalance, or feeling faint. Vertigo, on the other hand, is the distinct feeling that you or your surroundings are spinning, often linked to inner ear dysfunction. While these symptoms can overlap, both significantly impact your ability to function safely.
Vestibular disorders are common causes of dizziness and vertigo. These include benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), vestibular neuritis, labyrinthitis, and other inner ear or neurological conditions that affect your balance system.
What Causes Dizziness and Vertigo?
Common causes include inner ear disturbances, such as calcium crystal displacement (BPPV), inflammation or infection of the vestibular nerve, head trauma, migraine-related dizziness, or neurological conditions. Other contributors may include dehydration, certain medications, or changes in blood pressure.
If you’ve been dealing with ongoing symptoms without clear answers, a physical therapist trained in vestibular rehab can help identify the root cause and provide relief.
