Vertigo

Vertigo is a common, distressing condition that is classically described by a person as a ‘spinning’ sensation of either their body or their surroundings. 

While there are many causes of vertigo, the most common cause, Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is treatable by a trained physiotherapist and can have immediate positive outcomes.



We recommend that if you have vertigo you request to see a physiotherapist trained in the management of this condition. Your physiotherapist will be able to assess and treat you using specific techniques, or if required, refer you to see a medical doctor for further investigation or assessment.
