Persistent Postural-Perceptual Dizziness
Recently, I’ve heard so much frustration from those with PPPD. Most health care providers are not familiar with this complex disorder. PPPD is usually triggered by vertigo such as vestibular migraine or BPPV. However, rather than recovering to normal, the normal compensating mechanisms don’t reset as they should. The vestibular system goes into a chronic (persistent) state of imbalanced and confused inputs.Often there is an over-dependence on visual input. Optimal treatment must be individualized and may include vestibular therapy, medication for anxiety and depression, and counseling or psychotherapy. My new book, available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble, “Vertigo and Dizziness: A No-Nonsense Approach for Patients and Practitioners” describes all the major vertigo disorders, treatments, and practical suggestions.

People often talk about having a “toolkit” or treatment plan for vestibular migraine because symptoms usually aren’t managed with just one thing.

Finding the right combination can take time, but that’s a normal part of the process 🌀
