What we treat
Positional vertigo (BPPV)
Short episodes of vertigo with certain head movements. It usually responds well to repositioning manoeuvres.
Cervicogenic dizziness
Unsteadiness related to the neck, often after whiplash or with neck pain.
After vestibular neuritis
Unsteadiness that lasts weeks after the acute episode.
Persistent dizziness and unsteadiness
Feeling insecure when you move, which limits your daily life.
How we help you
Assessment
History, positional and eye-movement tests and a neck examination to find the likely cause.
Manoeuvres
If it is positional vertigo, repositioning manoeuvres in the clinic.
Vestibular rehabilitation
Gaze, balance and habituation exercises adapted to you, also for home.
Follow-up

Techniques we use
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to see a doctor first?
It is not required to book. If the assessment shows signs that need medical tests, we will tell you and point you in the right direction.
When should I go to A&E?
If the dizziness comes on suddenly with difficulty speaking, weakness, double vision or a very severe headache, go to A&E or call 112.
How many sessions will I need?
Positional vertigo usually improves in a few sessions. Longer-standing unsteadiness needs more work. We give you an estimate after the assessment.
