What Is Dizziness?

Dizziness is a symptom, not a diagnosis. It can feel like lightheadedness, imbalance, faintness, brain fog, or a spinning sensation called vertigo.

Common Causes of Dizziness
Common causes of dizziness include inner ear and balance issues, vestibular problems, migraines, dehydration, blood pressure changes, medication side effects, and changes in how the brain processes movement and position.

First-line care
Dizziness treatment starts with finding the cause. At Omega Functional Health in Wheat Ridge, first-line care may include a focused evaluation, vestibular rehabilitation strategies, and personalized care to improve balance, stability, and symptom control.

Urgent red flags
Seek urgent medical care if dizziness happens with chest pain, fainting, severe headache, weakness, numbness, slurred speech, double vision, trouble walking, or sudden hearing changes.

Understanding Vertigo and Vestibular Dysfunction

Your vestibular system is a sensitive, fundamental system of your body. It is made up of two different balance organs in the inner ear, the Semicircular Canals responsible for rotational head movement and the Otolith organs, responsible for linear movement, like driving forward or backward in a car or riding up and down in an elevator, and perception to the every present force of Gravity. The vestibular system is deeply connected to your Visual system, mainly your eye movement reflexes; your Somatosensory system, body-position input from muscles and joints and your Cerebellar connection pathways.

Most people experience persistent dizziness, spinning, rocking, lightheadedness, blurred vision, or unsteadiness due to a lack of integration between the “Big 3”: The Vestibular system, The Visual system and The Somatosensory system. All three of these systems must be in perfect harmony at all times in order for you to know where you are in your environment and where the environment is in relation to you. (PubMed)

Two important myths to clear up:

Myth: “All dizziness is the same.”
Reality: Different dizziness diagnoses need different treatment applications.

Myth: “I should just rest until it goes away.”
Reality: For many vestibular disorders, targeted rehab outperforms prolonged inactivity.

Understanding BPPV, Vestibular Migraines and PPPD

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo or BPPV is one common cause of brief, position-triggered vertigo (like rolling in bed or looking up). It is caused when too many small crystals called Otoconia, located above the Otolith, fall into the semicircular canals of the inner ear. When you rise the crystals don’t fall out they fall in and become trapped in the canal bending the hair cells inside the Canal causing an intense spinning and dysequilibrium.

Vestibular Migraines are a type of Migraine characterized by feelings of spinning or the room spinning making you feel like you are on a merry go round or on a boat. Other common complaints are bright lights, loud noises, issues with crowded places and some experience with flashing lights or blinds spots, called an aura.

The biggest differences between BPPV and Vestibular Migraines are that BPPV often comes in short intense bursts, lasting seconds to a minute, and are dependent upon head position while Vestibular Migraines can last minutes to hours and can be triggered without moving your head. (PubMed)

Persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD). PPPD is a recognized diagnosis with specific criteria, including persistent dizziness/unsteadiness that worsens with upright posture, movement, and visually complex environments. (PubMed)

Common Dizziness Symptoms and How They Affect Daily Life

Common symptoms include:

Vertigo (spinning sensation)
Rocking/swaying or “off-balance” feeling, like being on a boat
Nausea and motion sensitivity
Blurry vision with head turns
Unsteady walking or fear of falling
“Brain fog,” fatigue, and overwhelm in busy environments

Common aggravators:

Rolling in bed, bending, quick head turns
Crowded aisles, scrolling screens, visually busy spaces
Driving, multitasking, and rapid position changes

Common easing patterns:

Correct diagnosis and targeted treatment
Gradual exposure (instead of complete avoidance)
Structured home exercises

Impact often shows up as reduced work productivity, lower exercise tolerance, less driving confidence, chronic pain, migraines/headaches, nausea, sleep disruption, and social withdrawal.

What Causes Dizziness and Balance Problems?

Dizziness usually has more than one contributor. Common drivers include:

Vestibular drivers: Unilateral/Bilateral vestibular miscalibration, BPPV, post-viral vestibular changes
Visual-vestibular mismatch: sensitivity to motion, screens, and crowded visual scenes
Proprioception mismatch: The brain needs an accurate representation of where the body is before it can judge proper distance of objects or people outside the body. When there is a mismatch, symptoms can be the result.
Neurologic contributors: migraine-related vestibular symptoms, post-concussion effects
Behavioral/lifestyle contributors: sleep disruption, stress load, reduced activity, under-recovery

A common cycle is: symptoms → avoidance → reduced tolerance/capacity → more symptoms. Treatment works best when we break that cycle with precise diagnosis, brain specific exercises, and measurable progression.

Dizziness Red Flags: When to Go to Urgent Care or the ER

Seek emergency care immediately if dizziness or vertigo comes with:

Face drooping, arm weakness, or speech changes
Sudden one-sided numbness/weakness
Sudden severe headache with no clear cause
Sudden vision loss or double vision
New severe coordination loss, collapse, or inability to walk
Fainting, chest pain, or shortness of breath

These can signal serious medical conditions, including stroke. Call 911. (CDC)

For non-emergency but concerning presentations (progressive asymmetric hearing loss, nonauditory neurologic deficits, high cerebrovascular risk), advanced medical evaluation and imaging may be indicated. (Johns Hopkins Medicine)

How We Evaluate Vertigo, Dizziness, and Balance Issues

At Omega Functional Health, your assessment is built to identify the most likely diagnosis first, then match care to that diagnosis.

Your evaluation includes:

Detailed history: onset, triggers, duration, pattern, fall risk, migraine/concussion history, medications
Vestibular and oculomotor testing: Videonystagmography (VNG), Posturography
Gaze Stability, Optokinetic and Vestibulo-Occular (VOR) Testing
Positional testing when BPPV is suspected
Balance and gait testing for real-world function
Differential diagnosis to distinguish peripheral vestibular, central, migraine, PPPD, and mixed presentations

Imaging is not automatically required for every dizziness case. For many classic peripheral patterns, clinical exam guides first-line care. Imaging is prioritized when red flags or atypical neurologic features are present. (Johns Hopkins Medicine)

Your Personalized Vestibular Therapy Treatment Plan

Phase 1: Calm Symptoms and Improve Safety

Confirm likely diagnosis and immediate priorities
Reduce symptoms with targeted Brain Specific Exercises
Provide fall-risk and daily-safety strategies
Begin low-dose symptom-calibrated home exercises
Use canal repositioning when BPPV is present

Phase 2: Restore Motion Tolerance

Gaze stabilization progression (VOR-focused)
Habituation for motion/visual sensitivity triggers
Positional transition retraining (flexing, extending, bending, turning)
Early walking/head-turn integration

Phase 3: Rebuild Balance and Functional Capacity

Dynamic balance and gait progression
Dual-task drills (movement + cognitive demand)
Endurance and confidence rebuilding
Work, parenting, and activity-specific loading

Phase 4: Return to Work, Exercise, and Daily Life

Gradual return to driving, gym, hiking, and busy environments
Flare-response plan for setbacks
Maintenance home program and progress checkpoints

When Adjunct Therapies May Be Used

Vestibular rehabilitation remains the core treatment for vestibular diagnoses. Adjunct options are considered only when your exam shows coexisting contributors that may benefit from supportive care. Not every modality is right for every patient, and no single tool treats all dizziness patterns

What the Research Says About Vestibular Rehabilitation

2022 Clinical Practice Guideline (JNPT/APTA): Strong recommendations support vestibular rehabilitation for peripheral vestibular hypofunction, with supervised care plus home exercise for best outcomes. Applies to: peripheral vestibular hypofunction. (PubMed)

BPPV Guideline Update (AAO-HNSF): Emphasizes accurate diagnosis and repositioning maneuvers, while reducing unnecessary vestibular suppressants and inappropriate imaging. Applies to: suspected BPPV. Limitation: focused on BPPV, not all vestibular disorders. (aao-hnsfjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com)

Cochrane Review (unilateral peripheral vestibular dysfunction): Reports moderate-to-strong evidence that vestibular rehab is safe/effective; for BPPV specifically, repositioning maneuvers may be superior short-term. Applies to: unilateral peripheral cases. Limitation: heterogeneity across protocols. (Cochrane Library)

PPPD Consensus Criteria (Bárány Society): Defines chronic non-spinning dizziness/unsteadiness patterns worsened by posture, motion, and visual complexity. Applies to: persistent dizziness presentations. Limitation: diagnostic criteria guide classification; treatment must still be individualized. (PubMed)

Concussion-related dizziness evidence: Systematic reviews suggest vestibular rehab can improve dizziness and function after concussion, though study designs and dosage protocols vary. Applies to: post-concussion vestibular symptoms. Limitation: evidence quality and protocols are mixed. (PubMed)

Vestibular Therapy Case Example: From Daily Dizziness to Better Function

A 22-year-old Female presented with 18 years of dizziness, motion sensitivity, and Migraines. Symptoms were triggered by quick head turns, rising up from a supine position, crowded environments, and screen-heavy workdays.

Baseline limitations

Needed frequent breaks at work
Reported anxiety about symptom flare-ups in public spaces
Chronic Pain in Jaw, head, neck and shoulders

Assessment highlights

Positional testing negative for active BPPV at intake
Reduced gaze stabilization tolerance. Looking to the right was worse than the left
Eye drift during a darkness test with excessive blinking
Intention tremors in both hands
Balance deficits both on baseline testing and on perturbed surface
No immediate neurologic red flags on exam

Plan duration

12 weeks of structured in-clinic progression plus home program

Interventions

Visual, vestibular and proprioception retraining in office
Brain specific exercises performed at home
Myofascial release on musculoskeletal adhesions contributing to chronic pain

Milestones

Watch Now: What Is Dizziness and What Causes It?

In this 8-minute overview, we explain the most common causes of vertigo and dizziness, how we separate medical red flags from treatable vestibular patterns, and what a practical recovery roadmap looks like from day one to return-to-life goals.

FAQ

Is vestibular therapy the same as the Epley maneuver?
How long does vestibular therapy take?
Can therapy make symptoms worse at first?
Do I need an MRI before starting?
Can vestibular therapy help after concussion?
What if my dizziness has lasted for months?
Is dizziness ever an emergency?
Can stress and poor sleep make dizziness worse?

No. The Epley maneuver is one specific treatment for certain BPPV cases. Vestibular therapy is broader and may include gaze stabilization, habituation, and balance retraining. (aao-hnsfjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com)

It depends on diagnosis, symptom duration, and consistency with home exercises. Some people improve in a few weeks; others need a longer progression.

Mild temporary symptom provocation can happen during targeted rehab. Your program should be dosed to challenge your system without overwhelming it.

Not always. Many peripheral vestibular patterns are diagnosed clinically. Imaging is prioritized for red flags or atypical findings. (Johns Hopkins Medicine)

Evidence suggests it can improve dizziness and function in many post-concussion cases, though protocols vary. (PubMed)

Persistent symptoms can still improve when diagnosis and targeted strategies are precise. Chronic patterns like PPPD are recognized and treatable with structured care. (PubMed)

Yes. If symptoms include stroke warning signs (FAST or BE-FAST features), call 911 immediately. (CDC)

Yes. They can increase system sensitivity and reduce recovery capacity, which is why treatment includes both physical and behavioral pacing strategies.

Jeff H.

My lower back, left knee and right ankle have extremely limited my mobility for the last few years. I played soccer football baseball golfed and bowled all through high school.... read more I then switched to only softball and golfed in my 40s. However, the last few years my body really started to break down and all that activity took a pretty massive toll on my joints. I broke my ankle and tore my patella tendon a few years ago. After those incidents I just couldn't work out and run anymore. I gained weight and was miserable. About a month ago I started the sessions. Last week I ran on the treadmill for the first time. The best thing is the next day I woke up and didn't feel any pain in my lower back knee or ankle. I'm so thankful to Dr Sam and Dr lynn. Thank you so much. My family thanks you as well. I can finally workout and run again without the fear of waking up the next morning in severe pain. I feel better than I have in years.

Jason P.
