    I started getting vertigo about seven years ago, it just hit me outta the blue! Then I started getting anxiety from it. It seems like the anxiety just caused the vertigo to get worse. It became a vicious cycle. My doc gave me medicine but it didn’t always work, sometimes it made it worse. I had a CT scan of me head, which was normal. I had an MRI and nothing showed up. And I saw an ENT who didn’t believe that it was coming from my ears. Nobody could tell me what was wrong with me, and I was really starting to get very worried that it would never go away. Then I found heron program . I admit I was worried it was a scam but I was so desperate that I took the chance and I am glad I did! I felt the difference the very first day. Two days later I could walk almost normally again. And now I never have the spinning feeling in my head any more. Amazing! for more information about this program, click here HootDizzy.xyz

    Great resource for student! Please do note some slight errors. First, at 2:24. The Semi-Circular canals do NOT line up with the anatomical planes, as described. They are tilted up approximately 20-30 degrees, and with the HSCC (lateral canal) following Reid's Baseline, which is a line you can draw from the edge of your tragus (notch on the outer ear that you can use to plug the canal) to the lateral canthus (edge of the eye). Second: 2:58. "Otolithis" have a hard "O" for the initial "o" (and does not sound like "auto-lith", but rather like "o-toe-lith"), in medical communities in the U.S., at least. Note these are just slight things I would want my students to know. :) Again, great resource. Thanks!

    Very confusing explanations: Semicircular canals provide visual stabilization (called VOR) during day to day head motions, such as looking side to side in a grocery store. There's no VOR in the roll plane (Y axis) governed by semicircular canals. Vertical and horizontal head turns are governed by the semicircular canals, while translational VOR (forward, backward {car travel], upwards and downwards{elevator}) is governed by the utricle for eye stability in their respective orbits AND redundant body / postural positioning with the proprioceptive system. No known balance contributions (known yet) are rendered by the Saccule unless it's an organ of primacy in the supine position for pre-postural infancy. The video explanation of dizziness is completely wrong; rotational spin through the semicircular canals manifests in inertial LAG (endolymph is slower than initial acceleration of the spin causing the otoliths to move OPPOSITE the direction of stimulation). When the spin stops inertial lag of endolymph continues. This doesn't cause dizziness, it's the lack of management of this stimulus (inertial lag, catch up, latency) that results in the perception of dizziness. Both utricular organs and the VOR system deficits can lead to "dizziness" when their reflexive contributions AND CNS repression systems are aberrant or damaged. However, utricular input errors cause most commonly POSTURAL anomalies and imbalance, NOT primarily dizziness (exceptions: Meniere's, boat travel). Head motion provoked dizziness (head turns) = VOR dysfunction Body motion provoked dizziness (boat travel) = utricular dysfunction Vestibular rehab is IMPOSSIBLE if the treating professional does not understand these VERY important differences.
