Did You Know?

  • 90 Million Americans will experience dizziness, vertigo or balance problems sometimes in their lives.
  • Balance changes can be first noticed by age 40. Do you have trouble standing on one leg while changing shoes? Balance control is a complex interaction of inner ear, vision and strength. So, if you have noticed changes, this may indicate that you are having problems with one or more of these.
  • Falls are the leading cause of accidental death in persons 65 years of age and older.
  • The greatest predictor of who is at risk is a prior history of falls or a fear of falling.
  • According to John Hopkins 85% of all causes of vertigo are caused by inner ear problems.

The Good News.....

Today, thanks to modern technologies and space-age research we have a much better understanding of human equilibrium and the causes of dizziness. Most importantly, we now have proven and highly successful treatments for most types of dizziness and balance problems.

Dizziness, vertigo and balance problems are not a disease or diagnosis, but are symptoms, not much different from a toothache or fever. They are the symptoms of some problem that has occurred and tricked you into feeling like the world is spinning or you are about to fall over. At the Balance Center at Hearing Solutions you will not be told "Just learn to live with it".
