Vertigo & Dizziness
Vertigo and dizziness can be disorienting and disruptive — targeted physiotherapy assessment and treatment can help.
"Dizziness affects a significant share of adults each year, and the likelihood increases substantially with age."
Vertigo and dizziness cause a false sensation of spinning or unsteadiness, often linked to the inner ear's balance system, and can significantly affect confidence and daily function.
Vertigo and dizziness are commonly caused by disturbances in the inner ear's vestibular system, though they can also stem from the neck, blood pressure, or neurological factors. Left untreated, symptoms can increase the risk of falls and reduce confidence with everyday movement.
What causes vertigo and dizziness?
Vertigo and dizziness have many causes, including:
- Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) — the most common cause, triggered by head movement.
- Inner ear conditions such as vestibular neuritis or labyrinthitis.
- Neck-related (cervicogenic) dizziness.
- Migraine-associated vertigo.
- Balance or gait disturbances, particularly in older adults.

Most causes of vertigo and dizziness respond well to treatment.
