Let's Talk Vestibular Migraines 🧠

What is a Vestibular Migraine? 🤔

Vestibular Migraines are a neurological condition that causes episodes of severe dizziness or vertigo - with or without classic migraine pain in the head 

Symptoms can include: 

🧠 Vertigo: a feeling of spinning, rocking, or floating when sitting, or standing still 

🧠 Balance and Coordination deficits 

🧠 Sensory Sensitivity to bright lights, loud sounds, or strong smells

🧠 Nausea or vomiting during an episode 

🧠 Head pain 

Common Triggers include:

🧠 Stress & Anxiety

🧠 Lack of sleep and/or poor sleep quality 

🧠 Serotonin imbalance 

🧠 Hormonal changes - especially in women 

🧠 Changes in weather/barometric pressure

🧠 Visual, Proprioceptive and Biomechanical inputs

☕️ Some foods such as caffeine and chocolate may also trigger a Vestibular Migraine 

How can I treat my Vestibular Migraines?

After seeing a physician for a diagnosis and pharmacological treatment, many patients find relief with Vestibular Physical Therapy, Acupuncture and Massage Therapy. 

I treat clients with Vestibular Migraines with a combination of:

🤲🏻 RAPID-NFR treatment for increased proprioception and treatment of vertigo symptoms 

📍 Contemporary Medical Acupuncture to provide neuromodulation to the Trigeminal and Vagus nerves, as well as neurofunctional inputs for any impacted craniofacial and neck muscles 

Both of the above treatments help to induce the parasympathetic nervous system to help with the triggers of anxiety, stress, and sleep disturbances 💤
