Dizziness is a common symptom post concussion. It's important understand that dizziness can come from one or a combination of several components including but not limited to:
.
CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM (BRAIN): Think vision or vestibular migraines here. Migraines for example are often unilateral, pulsating, throbbing, headaches aggravated by exertion and accompanied by nausea and/or vomiting.
.
VESTIBULAR SYSTEM: The vestibular system can be broken into two braches: peripheral and central. The peripheral system refers to the inner ear and central to the brain.
.
MEDICATIONS: The side effect of many medications is dizziness. This can become particularly tricky when someone is on several medications and you are trying to nail down "where" their dizziness is coming from.
.
CERVICOGENIC: Dizziness can come from the neck (whiplash). Our neck is heavily tied to our sense of where we are in space and vision. People typically feel off balance but won't necessarily have a positive balance test. Feelings of fogginess, woozy, off, difficulty reading and visual fatigue are common.
.
ANXIETY (and other psychiatric disorders): Anxiety and fear can create increased sympathetic dominance in the nervous system, poor breathing mechanics, and a stiff upper body/gait contributing to dizziness. They may experience a vague sense of motion or unsteadiness.
.
❤CARDIOGENIC: This is often postural related. There will be a sensation of blacking out or occluded vision. Determining vitals with postural changes can help with diagnosis here. Think orthostatic hypotension and POTS (dysautonomia).

️️Take Home Point:
Dizziness is common Post Concussion and can come from multiple sources. If you are experiencing dizziness see your local health care provider with advanced training in concussion who can determine where your dizziness is coming from.

♂️Strap Walk ♀️
This one is so friggen cool! It’s a simple yet humbling exercise geared towards your eyes & vestibular system (inner ear)!
.
The progressions and explanation are all in the video. Know that the position of your head and what you’re looking at dictate the difficulty
.
Try your favorite balance pose ♂️ before & after and see if you can note a difference after this exercise! My hope is you’ll feel a bit more focused♂️ and maybe an ounce more stable
.
Also be sure to have fun with this. It’s play time in that your only boundary is your creativity! ✨
.
Final note: You can try this with a straight line on the ground. The tiny lift of a strap gives more feedback to your foot making it even more super powered for your
.
Enjoy my friends! & thank you for inspiration @bewellpersonaltraining
Quick follow-up to our post yesterday about training for a healthy Vestibular System
Here’s a fun way to stimulate your on-board BALANCING system:
Sit on the floor and spin to one direction ↔️ and then the other, begin slowly and stop if you get dizzy ; then go as fast as you’re able to handle.
And if you have kids they’d love to play with you.
Next, extend legs behind your body as you use your hands to support and lower your upper body.
As you do this, see if you can FIXATE your eyes on a target.
One of the benefits of doing your vestibular work on the floor is the sense of safety it has for your brain.
If you happen to do too much and get dizzy, you won’t fall and hurt yourself.
Further more, as infants, our visual and vestibular systems developed to “sync” with each other while we were on the floor, exploring our world.
In other words, our eyes and ears were trained to INTEGRATE received information ℹ️ with our body, creating Sensory Match.
Thus, working in that way now can help us “reset” our senses, training them to “match” again.
Have fun and let us know how you do. .

When I was first diagnosed with a vestibular disorder I was sedentary. I was too afraid to be active more than I had to be because I didn’t want to worsen my dizziness. This was a huge lifestyle change for me because I was so active prior to getting sick. Before I was always out running or at the gym taking group fitness classes but in the early stages of my diagnosis, I was too scared to even leave my apartment. And when you stop working out, you gain weight - 10 lbs to be exact.
However, it was when I went to vestibular rehab that I realized the importance of retraining my brain to find balance – that remaining sedentary wasn’t helping me get any better and that we must do different exercises to increase our tolerance to movement. It was then that I realized if I ever wanted to be active again, I needed to push through my workouts and deal with the dizziness that followed. I held onto the idea that if I could increase my tolerance to uncomfortable movement, balance would be waiting for me.
Flash forward to today and I’m able to not only run 4 miles again, but I’ve been steadily involving more weight training and fitness classes into my workout regimen. I’ve been lucky because one of the clients I do marketing for is a ballet-inspired barre fitness studio and they just recently launched their online #StreamingStudio. I started doing the workouts at home, and, man, is it giving me the next level of fitness I’ve needed but in the comfort of my own home.
I’m not afraid of falling down, looking stupid or taking breaks because I can simply hit pause. The other great thing is that a lot of the workouts are very similar to what I was doing before at my gym. Not to mention, because of the dance element, these workouts have helped me gain balance in different ways I am not getting from running. These workouts are great if you travel a lot or if you’ve just had a baby because of the flexibility of doing them wherever you have free time.
