@drjoedamiani: If you're dizzy and disoriented when you move, turn your head, or walk through busy environments… And you’ve tried relaxing, vertigo exercises, even meds— but it always comes back? This is something called PPPD (Persistent Postural-Perceptual Dizziness). It’s when your brain starts relying too much on your eyes for balance instead of your body. The result is confusion between what your body feels vs. what your eyes see, and a brain that can’t stabilize either. To fix it, we retrain how your brain processes movement 👇 1️⃣ Eye Tracking Fix your eyes on one object and move your head up and down, side to side. Then add opposite-direction head turns: eyes one way, head the other way, to re-sync body + visual input. 2️⃣ Band Posture Work Anchor a band in front of you. Step back and pull it apart, then out to the side. Make sure to keep tall posture and resist the pull to train your stabilizers again. 💡 So give it a try, and gradually, your brain will start trusting your body over your eyes again! #pppd #dizziness #vestibularrehab #balanceexercises #vestibulartherapy
