@drjoedamiani: Do you feel dizzy or off-balance… especially when you’re out and about, driving, or grocery shopping? It’s not always your inner ear. Sometimes an old injury, muscle weakness, or tension sends the wrong signals to your brain’s balance center. Your brain thinks you’re falling — even when you’re not — and that’s what creates that lingering, uneasy dizziness. The fix? Retrain the communication between your body and your balance system. Here’s 2 exercises to start: 1️⃣ Bounce pad head turns Stand on an unstable surface and turn your head up, down, left, right, tilt, and protract/retract. This challenges your balance system while your body has to work harder to stay steady — rebuilding trust between your brain and your body. 2️⃣ Band horizontal abduction Arms out to the side, band in hand, bring it in to touch your chest and hold. then continue the head movements. This strengthens the muscles feeding proprioceptive (position) info back to your brain — cleaning up the signal instead of letting it stay noisy and unreliable. Do these consistently and you’re helping your brain trust its balance signals again. #dizziness #vestibularmigraine #vertigo #dizzinessrelief #migraines
