How we can help you with BPPV in Rockford, MI
Our Advent Physical Therapy team has an office right here in Rockford, Michigan to help you with your BPPV. But, we not only want to help you treat your condition, we also want to help you learn more about it.
BPPV is a balance condition that may cause you to suddenly have short periods where you feel dizzy after moving your head in certain ways. Our team knows that this form of dizziness is caused by small pieces of calcium carbonate known as ear rocks. These ear rocks come from naturally-occurring calcium carbonate deposits that you have in your inner ear. We also know that moving your head in certain ways may cause these ear rocks to move around in your inner ear, and this movement is what causes you to feel dizzy. Our patients say they typically have dizziness from their BPPV when they’re lying down, turning over in bed or looking up at something.
Our team may be able to help you reduce your dizziness from BPPV with a therapy plan designed specifically for you. We may include therapy methods in your plan such as:
- Vestibular rehab
- Balance training
- Posture-improvement exercises
