balance quite considerably. Thanks to VertiFree, I can take it as I feel
the dizziness and disorientation coming on. Thanks for a product

When you feel that the room is spinning around you, or in other
words you sense that the objects around you are whirling
horizontally or vertically, you have vertigo. In effect, one might
feel that he himself is in an irregular whirling motion of some
sort.
Vertigo is a disease which is
often incorrectly confused with
dizziness. It is actually related to problems in the inner ear,
where the balance centers are located, although this is not the only
reason.
Usually, vertigo clears on its own without any treatment. It may
otherwise go within weeks or months with treatment, or it may
continue for years.
It may also be symptomatic of some other serious conditions such as
Ménière’s disease or multiple sclerosis, in which case, there is
need for their own set of treatments.
Further, certain homeopathic ingredients
are supposed to be highly effective in relieving the symptoms of
dizziness, weakness, fainting, fatigue, headaches and emotional
upsets of vertigo. Read more to know more...

head, especially turning of the head and also sudden
vertical movement like lifting from the pillow. This
type of vertigo is known as benign positional paroxysmal
vertigo (BPPV)

falling down
Medications such as Benadryl or Valium may either be taken orally,
with a skin patch or given through an IV. If vertigo is caused as a
result of a bacterial infection of the middle ear, antibiotics may
be administered. More severe episodes of vertigo may also require
surgery.

and nausea associated with vertigo and improve inner ear balance.
Herbal remedies containing homeopathic ingredients may be taken at
the first sign of symptoms and are safe to use for people of all

Not too many researches have been made regarding effect
of diet on vertigo and it is believed that diet in
itself doesn’t play that important a role in treating
it. Still, some vitamin supplements are supposed to
alleviate vertigo symptoms. Chronic vertigo sufferers
can incorporate these dietary changes along with natural
herbal & homeopathic remedies as discussed above.

If your suffering is due to any of the diseases which
are probable causes for vertigo, as stated above, then
their respective dietary management shall definitely
help you. It is primarily up to your doctor to diagnose
the exact cause of your vertigo and suggest dietary
changes if required, and secondly the onus is on you to
see for yourself, what dietary changes or, in some cases
like migraine, elimination of foods therapy does to you.

Vitamin B6 has been seen to reduce vertigo symptoms in
quite a few people. This master vitamin that is so very
important to strengthen immunity and produce antibodies
is found in chicken, beef, fish, bananas, beans, nuts,
whole grains, avocados, walnuts, fortified breakfast
cereals, potato, lentil, liver and turkey.
A few very effective home made remedies
are:
·
Take 2-3 teaspoons of sesame oil and heat it. Mix ½ a
teaspoon of both, cinnamon and cardamom, in this warm
oil and apply on your head. See the results for
yourself.
·
Large raisins - Fry 25g of large raisins in
clarified butter, add a little rock salt and eat them.
It will bring relief from vertigo.
·
Soak 10mg each of coriander seeds and dried amla
(Phyllanthus
emblica) powder in a glass of water in the night. Strain
the solution in the morning and drink. You may repeat
this for a few days with results improving as days pass
by.

the exact cause by discussing with him all the symptoms.
You should also see for yourself as to what symptoms are
applicable upon you after going through this
information. All this can potentially save you from
future complications like permanent deafness.
·
Walking has, since long, been prescribed to people to
reduce the stress and difficulty in adjusting to vertigo
if it persists for a few days. As vertigo may go by
itself in a few weeks, sometimes it is better not to
take too many medicines but instead concentrate on
aligning yourself with your present condition.
·
Stop smoking as it constricts the blood flow to
the inner ear.
·
Make your home safe to prevent unnecessary falls
– ensure that your home is free of clutter, well lit,
install grab bars and use non-skid mats in the bathroom.
Prevent injuries from falls by using a cane or walking
frame to control your balance. Avoid driving or
operating heavy machinery if you have frequent attacks
of vertigo.
·
In case of position related vertigo, a physiotherapist
may actually help you a lot by guiding you in practicing
certain exercises at home which help in reducing the
symptoms. Examples include vestibular rehabilitation
and
particle repositioning maneuvers (PRMs), both of which
are usually associated with treating benign positional
paroxysmal vertigo (BPPV). PRMs are pretty useful in
certain BPPV cases as vertigo appears to be caused by an
accumulation of free-floating cell fragments in the
fluid of the inner ear and PRMs relocates these
fragments to a harmless location.
These exercises when combined with homeopathic
remedies discussed above can be very effective in
chronic, stubborn cases of vertigo sufferers.

with great results. Thanks for keeping my social life
