Vertigo is characterised as a type of dizziness. Its symptoms can vary for every individual but may include balance problems, ringing ears, nausea, vomiting, having problems focussing your eyes and sweating. It can be very debilitating – we can help. Our Cairns vertigo treatment is safe and starts with a thorough assessment at our Cairns Dizziness Clinic.
Motion sickness is triggered by various types of travel and movement. For some it’s boats, for others it’s buses and planes. Cars can also cause problems. While everyone can suffer motion sickness, it’s more common in those who suffer vestibular conditions or migraines. We tailor our Cairns motion sickness treatments to your specific needs.
During an assessment we’ll review your history, to identify when the vertigo / motion sickness started. Investigate triggers which cause episodes; and review any existing management plans in place, such as medications. We also complete a physical examination of balance, co-ordination, nervous system and biomechanics. We then develop a treatment pathway.
