How to beat vestibular migraines by changing your brain (applies to PPPD and VM)
Вставка

- In this video, I talk about why we should be addressing ALL vestibular migraines (with or without PPPD) with a biopsychosocial approach, and by doing that, how we can much more effectively treat and prevent them. I talk about the specific treatment protocols I use and give suggestions on how to use the free Healing Chronic Dizziness course if you have vestibular migraines.

for 7 years I have believed my daily dizziness was vestibular migraine (diagnosed by an ENT). I became hopeless to fix it. You have restored my hope and I am so thankful to you Dr. Arthur!!
You're very welcome! You are not alone!
I wish I had found you 30 years ago.
How are you doing?
im here, and i dont know what to do anymore, since no neurologists will see me
I’ve unfortunately dealt with VM and chronic pain or something of that nature for over 15 years. I’ve done a lot of self study trying to figure out what I’m dealing with and this by far is the best breakdown I’ve ever seen. Thank you for providing this info!
You're very welcome, Robert! Thank you for your trust!
Did you follow what she said and do it help
Could not have been said better!!! Thank God there are SOME practitioners out there who understand this and it's not in our minds it's in our brains! We need to address the root cause and finally, we are unlearning the traditional medical model and going for a more comprehensive brain/body connection viewpoint. Bravo to you my dear! xoxo A
Best I’ve heard!
Very very good video. Looking at the psychosocial causes as well. In this I fully agree. Happy to have found you!
I’ve seen some incredible doctors and knowledgeable professionals dealing with MDDS and Vestibular Migraines and there’s no doubt you’re the best on youtube. Incredible resources
Oh Alex, thank you for the kind words, I really needed to hear that today and it means a lot to me that you've found my videos so helpful!
I've always described my migraines as a "bio-chemical" process. Its nice to see you start off with that.
All of this is so great Dr. Yo! One thing that triggers my VM and symptoms to a great deal is WEATHER CHANGES (specifically drops in barometric pressure and high heat.) My body just powers through any bio-psycho social elements I have been working on/through and I get triggered with all the symptoms. I have considered moving somewhere the weather is more consistent. I have heard you say you don't have many patients in FL where you live and I do believe that a LOT of people with VM are triggered by changes in weather which FL has seasonally but generally is consistent. Just wanted to share the weather trigger and see if anyone else can share their experiences. Thanks for all you do!
Here’s how I think about weather changes! Ask Dr. Yo: why do biological and environmental triggers bring on or worsen my dizziness symptoms?

Great info
A very informative and comprehensive video. I am slowly beginning to understand the mechanisms of this condition. Thank you.
I think you are spot with your thoughts on Vestibular Migraine Dr. Arthur. You truly do a fantastic job explaining-in simple terms with terrific analogies-what can be complicated concepts. I’m finding that really understanding what is going on goes a long way in retraining the brain, which is in my estimation at the heart of recovery.
Hi Paula! Always so happy to see you here in the comment section! Education truly is the medication for chronic conditions like these.
Love the videos!
Thanks Gianni!
I'm so happy to have found your channel and I will be exploring all of your videos. I used an app a few years ago designed for chronic pain to help with my dizziness, and just replaced the word "pain" with "symptoms" and it really helped me. This just explains how and why it ended up working for me as well as it did. Thank you for creating this content, I look forward to learning more.
Excellent, Lauren! Yes, many similarities between chronic pain and chronic dizziness.
That’s so great! Was it called curable?
I need q doctor like you cuz all my headache doctors didnt know what to do cuz u get migraines literally everyday and the only thing i can do is sleep or throw up only two options
This video was brilliant. I have had chronic neck pain plus lots more including dizziness for 40 years. It started with physical cause but now I am sure it is related to high stress and trauma. I am going to keep watching videos and take your course. Love the interviews. So inspiring to hear and I adore the way you support/care for people. Lin PS Can I schedule a private session sometime down the line?
Hi Lin, thank you for your kind words. I do work with people through my VIP coaching group and have a waitlist for one on one sessions. You can read more about the services I offer on my website thesteadycoach.com/
Thank you! Wow this is brand new concept to me. Iim a wimp when it comes to medicine so I just suffer. But this is the best information I’ve heard in 30 years! Thank you! I just subscribed to your channel.
You're very welcome, CJ! I am so glad you found this channel!
So grateful to have come across the information you’re sharing!! I have battled Vestibular Migraines for the last 3 years. I’ve watched a total of 4 episodes so far and am seeing a HUGE improvement already. God bless you for sharing this work with us. I’m going to be doing the “How to treat your chronic dizziness course” as suggested. I cannot wait to share this with my other friends I know suffering. Tonight was my first vision loss migraine in almost 2 weeks….AND I was able to use my rescue med and come out of it within under an hour. That is HUGE for me!! They can take me out for days. Bringing awareness and processing and letting go seems like it’s just clicked! Thank you!
You're very welcome, Kelly! I am so glad that you found these resources!
Thank you ❣️
Thank you 😊
Thank you
God bless you !!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This was helpful. Had a bad stress day yesterday. Let some of it out....but think I clenched my teeth all night because jaw hurts this morning. I now feel pressure behind eye and some anxiety like this day is gonna be hard. Which tenses up my whole body and now will probably cause more head neck stuff. My ears are already full with pressure. So yesterday the stress high. I was worried about driving my daughter back and forth to tests in high school. Hard to drive with vestibular stuff and I had done it all week. Now my body saying ok enough. Fight or flight is there even if you think Oh I Got This! So process more feeling at a deeper level I think. Cause you may think you have this but your body so tensed up to survive its yelling Hell No You Do Not!!! Hence more symptoms. Thank you for this video. Thank you for your care Dr. Yo!
I have taken your wonderful course and am focussing on relieving chronic stress and anxiety though a daily practice of your brain exercises, parasympathetic breathing, meditation. In two weeks of this, I am feeling so much better. This is after 6 years of almost continual balance problems (which I first experienced 25 years ago), with episodes of vertigo/dizziness. ‘Best guess’ diagnosis 5 years ago was vestibular migraine following an episode of BPPV, but I now think I have had PPPD for years. The thought of VRT exercises to promote dizzy symptoms are currently freaking me out, so I am focussed on the emotional side for now at least. But I was very encouraged to hear that many of your clients get better without VRT. I had been wondering if this was ever possible. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you are doing. You are amazing and an absolute blessing!
Caroline, I am so grateful to see your comment and to know that my course has made a difference in your life. It means so much to me! Yes, the emotional stuff is honestly the foundation of everything. As you keep feeling better, you can start incorporating more movement into your daily life. VRT is totally not required!
Hi ! How are you ?
How are you doing?
@@yendryrojasDo you also have this condition??
As someone diagnosed 8+ years ago with VM and not having any actual migraine symptoms (just dizziness) videos like these are a big help. I’ve been medicated for half that time, and after 3 years the medication stopped working. After tripling the dose without relief, I’m glad to have found another option.
Not quite sure what to do about the medication situation now though.
I am so glad that you found this channel!
It all started for me with a bunch if traumatic events. Thought i had a stroke. Long story short im perfectly healthy from all drs and tests. Vrt doesnt effect me to much. Sometimes i feel a tad worse after but mostly okay.
Patterns mess me up but only sometimes.
Im overcoming health anxiety thankfully. I went from weekly panic and anxiety to being able to stay calm.
Right now i just have visual impairments (visual snow and floaters) and then fatigue is crazy so often.
And dizziness sometimes worse than other times
Thank you for sharing your story with us. I'm glad to hear that you're healthy and that you're overcoming health anxiety. It takes a lot of courage to face your fears and work towards recovery. Symptoms often change over time with neural circuit dizziness, so please don't take that as a sign that you're doing it wrong.
Also weather changes big trigger for me. Do better on clear non windy days. Not sure how to handle weather changes better for vestib migraine issues.
Great Information! I would love to take the class I’m having Vestibular Migraines with vertigo.

Thank you for this. I have vestibular migraines and I know they are caused by prolonged stress, eg new job, family illness, the death of my husband three years ago and currently a house move. I have done a lot of therapy, journaling, talking to a counsellor and I conclude that at the heart of it is my anxiety of disproval and not belonging. I am struggling at the moment with bouncy feet and eyes, brought about , I am sure, by the prospect of moving to a smaller house.
Knowing that I am ,to a degree, in control of this
by reassuring myself that I am safe is a very useful tool.
Hi Judy, wow, with all that going on... it makes sense that your brain just said, "ENOUGH!" I am so sorry for your loss. I know you just joined the community. I hope that helps you feel a little less alone. Connection is the remedy for many of these issues.
How are you ?
Thank you so much. I have VM and not taking ang meds, just manage my headache with magnesium. Currently dizzy 24/7 for almost 2 yrs
Jero, so glad you found the video- this could be the missing piece for you!
How are you ?
@@yendryrojas Still dizzy 24/7, but life goes on. Not that much in intensity
@@jerocantallopez8854 you take medication?
@@yendryrojas Cant afford, Only exercise ,magnesium and riboflavin
Interesting, my chronic migraine and PPPD started 3 weeks after I had a spinal cord stimulator put in my back almost 3 years ago I have always thought there has to be some connection, as a hypervigilante, introverted person I certainly fit the type.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video- there is a very strong connection between other types of chronic conditions (like pain) and dizziness as well!
How are you ?
I’ve never heard VM described and explained so marvellously .. well done! You’ve answered so my questions for me..
I’ve read and searched for explanations for a long time.
I have a question.. I’ve been a long time migraine sufferer and now I’m 73 I have no migraine pain though now I’ve been diagnosed with VM .. dizziness, foggy head and vertigo and prescribed Effexor antidepressants 75ml which keep it all relatively at bay.. I really don’t want to to take these forever.. dare I come off this
medication ?
Thank you for reading
Anne
May I also add I’ve had tinnitus for the last 3 years .. when my tinnitus is at a peak along with dizziness/vertigo it’s unbearable..
I have hearing aids which help sometimes
Anne
Hi Anne, I'm so glad this makes so much sense to you! I can't advise you on the medication question unfortunately. I can tell you that many people recover without medication, so this would be a good question for your doctor.
Hello Dr.Yonit, I just watched this interesting video on VM, and I understand everything you mentioned, but when your migraines, with dizziness and Auras are triggered by barometric pressure, storms, high heat, humidity, and too much sunlight, because you can't change the weather, what is your thought on external triggers like this, thank you!!
Hi Rita! Your brain is misattributing “threat” to those benign changes in your environment. Our brains always detect them, but they only become triggers when they are perceived by the brain as dangerous.
I was actually dealing ok with what is probably VM or PPPD after damaging my left ear. After reading about how Migraine can actually cause Menieres disease, now I have gone down hill with my symptoms with stress over the worry of developing this also. There is no way I could cope with both constant dizziness and then random vicious attacks happening plus deafness, Already at my limit with it and the thought is terrifying

Can you do a video on Binocular Vision Disorder? The symptoms of it are almost identical to Vestibular Migraine. I was diagnosed and got prism glasses but still feel way off balance. Thanks!

@@TheSteadyCoach Thank you!❤️
My vestibular migraines didn’t start until I had a horrible reaction to marijuana and had a major panic attack. The next day I felt fine but later that night my dad gave me CBD to smoke and I was afraid it was THC and when I smoked I thought I was going to go through the same thing as the previous. Ever since I smoked the CBD I’ve never felt right and I got diagnosed with vestibular migraines and I don’t know what to do
The steady coach....I was recently diagnosed with vest.. migraine and pppd. I haven't started therapy yet. But started 2 types of magnesium pure encapsulation glycine and cognitive mag.....magnesium..... took for one night so far. Have you heard of anyone being helped by this?
Magnesium can indeed be helpful for migraine. Some people get significant relief from that, so I hope it works that way for you! But it's a biological approach only. Taking a biopsychosocial approach, including all of those factors, is the best path to recovery IMO.
Does vm usually have episodes of spinning, or is it 24/7 trampoline like pppd too? I have previously had horizontal bppv. Not gotten it back, but 24/7 trampoline is still here. I never had spinning and not often or never nausea. Trying sertaline now and still active and following your advice
Why you can recover from chronic dizziness whether you have PPPD, MdDS, VM or another diagnosis ua-cam.com/video/SStX2VwM9WY/v-deo.html
I get very dizzy in shopping malls , Walmart or bug stores . I have been told by the ENT it’s VM . But it sounds more like something else
This symptom comes up often, check out this video if you haven't already ua-cam.com/video/MsWYyDWuu_s/v-deo.html
Dr Arthur, do you feel that overweight and digestive anbormalities can lead to Vestibular Migraine? I suffer from continuous sensitivity in terms of dizziness, rocking motion and at the Positional Vertigo.
I think that being unhealthy in general certainly doesn't put someone's nervous system in optimal working condition, but many people at healthy weights also develop migraine. Digestive issues often accompany neural circuit dizziness and are often a neural circuit disorder as well. ua-cam.com/video/9Uhpgoi5fd0/v-deo.html
Hi Dr. Yo! Do you think it would be beneficial to try migraine medication to see if it may improve symptoms?
Hi Jessica, I discuss more on this topic in this video ua-cam.com/video/NLnSNCpewh4/v-deo.htmlsi=uMdhhsIkM9eP7ILj
I have a prolactinoma, I'm allergic to the meds to help it ,I have vertigo every month and I suffer daily dizzinness and off balance even on the meds for it vertigo was a side effect which I had even while on it I'm stuck in limbo basically and I'm so tired of dealing with the vertigo I'd give anything to get my life back , 😫
Hi Josephine, I am so sorry to hear what you are going through. This is a very difficult situation. But ALL symptoms are biopsychosocial. In your case, there is a strong biological reason why your symptoms are doing what they are doing, but I have seen people improve their quality of life significantly even when they have a medical illness by using a psychosocial approach. There have been studies on rheumatoid arthritis indicating that people who just journal about their feelings have significantly less pain than those who don't. it's worth a try.
Do you have any vids on eyes ? My eyes are now jacked up , ironically after finding a decent vest therapist. Double vision , blurry etc etc
ua-cam.com/video/MsWYyDWuu_s/v-deo.html
I've had a headache for a few days now, kinda started as I started to feel a little more relaxed about the dizziness. Do you think as we relax after weeks of trying to deal with the pppd that a headache can start?
OH yes, this is pretty classic- when one symptom goes down, another one often pops up. I have a few videos on this- I can't remember if I've already shared this one with you- ua-cam.com/video/APOw4MWc-Gc/v-deo.html
@@TheSteadyCoach it’s like my Mother always got migraine when she was on holiday
I’ve been suffering from vestibular migraines for 3 months. I’ve been put on 50mg of nortriptyline (slowly built up from 10mg) for the past 5 weeks but seeing such little improvement. I’m prone to anxiety and panic attacks but at the point where I can’t go outside on my own at all without having an attack and have to go back to bed and sleep. Does anyone have any advice or tips that helped them get through this?
My dizziness symptoms itself changes. Sometimes an "on a boat"-feeling, weak limbs, hard to focus, but recently more lightheadedness. Is this also a PPPD symptom?
Hi Henk! These inconsistent symptoms can be very normal in people with chronic dizziness. It is hard for me to draw conclusions without talking to you personally. I would recommend checking out this video if you have not already on how to tell if your chronic dizziness is PPPD ua-cam.com/video/rtwNNaw7dqA/v-deo.html.
Like freezer burnt meat ? On nerves ! In serveral different areas enough until system can’t mask or ignore it anymore! Even though it keeps constantly trying too! Don’t know how sit does just makes since
My history started almost thirty years ago with likely vestibular neuritis which left me with pppd it settled down I was able to on with adaptive strategies. Later I had intensive dizziness episodes related to severe stress and likely BPPV but perhaps just severe pppd. (No insurance and unsupportive husband meant both diagnosis). I also developed bad migraines with my period. Ended up taking my control with no break to avoid them). Then started using progesterone. Eventually they were so bad I would have them for five days and miss 3-4 days of work every three weeks! Now in my fifties I’m struggling with VMs (assumed diagnosis by neurologist) but they last four ir five days! @steady coach do you think the length of my hormone migraines is why the vm are so long??? Also working on pppd as well.
It's possible. I think the more important point (to me) is that your brain already had a habit of going into "prolonged danger mode." Often people who end up with neural circuit dizziness previously had previous unexplained chronic symptoms.
I have been experiencing off balance issues and dizziness for the past 2 years. Recently i consulted a ENT and he did some ruling out process and finally gave me sibelium medicine for vestibular migraine to check ..it did work after some doses but soon after i got cold the symptoms came back .now its all back to being off balanced and head heaviness. I dont know what to do about it m
I'm sorry you're going through this. My entire channel is about how to get better when the medications don't work. I hope you find some useful info here.
I was diagnosed with VM since I’m going through menopause. Neurologist says due to hormone levels. I have no pain but severe dizziness, nausea, & vomiting.
Hi. I was diagnosed with PPPD post menopause. It was a scary time. That was three years ago. I've done a lot of nervous system work, bio identical hormone therapy and vestibular therapy. I am doing so much better! I got my life back, butI still have chronic dizziness, but I've learned to manage it. I am currently having a a bout of severe dizziness due to stress and hormonal imbalance. How are you dealing with your daily dizziness? I am very curious. Thank you.
Hi, I can relate I got diagnosed with POTS (dysfunction of the autonomic system)PPPD and VM about 4 years ago after being sneezed on in the shops I got a cold and then all my symptoms started. Firstly Tinnitus then bouts of dizziness. I’ve had vestibular therapy which was great and have Botox injections in my head and neck every 3 months. I still get dizziness daily but I try really hard to ignore and push on. But 2 days ago I got diagnosed with BMS Burning mouth syndrome apparently it’s from stress and overactive nervous symptom. It’s really challenging at times to have dizziness, light headedness, brain fog pots symptoms and now 24/7 burning tongue. I’m about to go on anti depression meds to try and calm my brain. I’m also post menopausal. Before this I had not health problems. I try to eat healthy and get exercise that I enjoy. Wishing us all calming health.

Thank you
This is my pattern
I wake up with a migraine, then in an hour or so it becomes worse and worse, no medicine like Excedrin, Tylenol, it aspirin does not help. In the afternoon I would get dizziness too and
Then I would take antihistamine for dizzy off balance feeling and then I would not help I would panic because I can't really function much at that point and will take Klonopin. Then I lay down close my eyes stunning while I lay in the dark and fall asleep. Wake up the next day and no spinning, but that headache and then the cycle repeats. Had that for three days straight while on my period as well today had migraine but I am happy did not get dizzy thank God
Hopefully tomorrow I will feel well.
What are your thoughts
Hormones?
I have stress being around my daughter. She has anxiety and panic attacks and I help her while I am hurting and passing out myself.
Yes, most all women in my family suffered with migraines, so yes genetic.
Even if I take shower, relax, meditate, do yoga does not help
I tried all that
Thank you ☺️
Hi Marina, triggers are just that- triggers- and not the cause of the symptoms. Sometimes people do notice stress sets things off but sometimes it's more subtle than that. it all takes a nervous system that is in danger mode. I know you have had very difficult times in your past, and working through those things will help your brain be less likely to automatically go into danger mode all the time.
@@TheSteadyCoach thank you
So you are saying that removing stressors or triggers is not the cause, the cause is the ability of my brain not to react to them and to learn that there is no stress, my brain basically labeled that's as stress, right?!
I am learning neuroplasticity and slowly figuring it all out
Thank you again.
You are an amazing doctor.

Ive just found this video due to my thoughts im thinking of going to the doctor's for an mri even though im terrified of the thought and really dont know if i can be in that tunnel for 15-20min without having a panic attack but ive been having headaches all day everyday (unless i take pain relief) and i wake up with intense headaches. I do belive its just my anxiety but from your other videos i know its a good idea to do it im just really not wanting to.😢
Hi Emmey, I always recommend getting medically cleared first and this way you can focus on healing and moving forward.
Yea you're right. I guess I've always been to scared due to my extreme health anxiety I already think I have tons of issues and it got worse when I new I had bradycardia and actually went through with the tests and they confirmed it so I assume everything I think I have im now right 🤦♀️ oops my brain lol
@@emmeylouise5241did you get that mri yet? How are you doing?
I didn't. I'm currently moving forward with my journey and my dizziness has gotten alot better. I do get dizzy when I'm busy doing too much or worrying subconsciously. The headaches are still there although they seem to happen the second I think "do I have a headache?" So I'm not focusing on that issue too much.
@@emmeylouise5241 I have had the whole work up. MRI x2, ent, neurologist, cardiologist, heart stress test, upper cervical chiro, regular chiro for over a year, vestibular therapy x 2…
Still having daily dizziness and have had several vertigo episodes. But praise God I do feel like as the years go on, I am getting better. I am very thankful nothing has ever been found “wrong” with me.
Do you know the eye movements that can help with pots, I have pots and PPPD and have experienced extreme trauma as a child am in counciling and am to sensitive to meds every time I start a new med my pots blows up and I almost can NOT recover it is in my hands now and I am scared
Hi Tanya, there are no eye movement exercises usually recommended for POTS. I have future content coming on POTS but it's another neural circuit condition that is very likely related to the trauma you experienced as a child. In my opinion, it is best addressed by calming the nervous system, understanding the mindbody connection, and working through the traumatic experiences. I am so very sorry you're dealing with this. No one deserves to feel this way.
@@TheSteadyCoach I started doing the 5 min vestib I can only do 2 minutes at a time tho. I think I may have been misdiagnosed. After watching you vids and starting your course I remembered that this had happened a couple years ago after a long train ride, not as intense but it was a couple of days before normalizing. I think I might feel a bit better, but it is hard to tell I will keep you posted🙃 Thank you for what you do it is very expensive and travel is hard to get to specialized care, you are doing gods work🙏 Helping people, you are such a blessing
I had pots like symptoms when my pppd came on as well example lightheaded when standing - hope you can do a video on this
After watching this I wonder how much of this contributes to my tinnitus on top of my VM
Often clients find that their other symptoms start to quiet down as well while working with these methods.
Hi Doctor. My head feels empty and i feel like i cannot concentrate on what i look from time to time. Sometimes it’s a floating sensation. Is this dizziness?
Those are definitely symptoms my clients have! Not “spinning” but just feeling difficulty while looking at something, like lightheadedness. Dizziness is really a catch-all term for many symptoms.
Is it possible to have a vestibular migraine, triggered by busy environments like shopping centres and malls? I have a previous history of migraine, however when I’m shopping I get the dizziness but not the headache. Also get bad brain fog 😭
Hi Ella, I see you found the video on visual vertigo and that was where I was going to send you :)
@@TheSteadyCoach thank you!! And thanks for all you do for dizziness sufferers, you have no idea how much you help me ❤️
Dr. Yo, would this all apply to non-vestibular migraines as well?
YES!!!
How do i get a virtual appointment with you?
Hello! My practice is completely full right now and I have a long waiting list at the moment. I wish that weren't the case because I know there are many people out there who need my help. If you click contact on the top of my channel, it'll take you to my practice website, where you can send me a message requesting to be put on the list.

Can marijuana or CBD help if yes, which ones and how much thc% and CBD% and or Over the counter migraine medicine
Haven't seen much success with either.
Doctor is there medication for PPPD ?
Not one that works for the majority of people. SSRIs and SNRIs are frequently used but the studies on them are not robust. They are what most physicians will recommend though.

I watched 3/4 of this video and heard nothing about how to alleviate vestibular migraine.
Psychoeducation and understanding that there is no structural problem, that this is a software issue, is the number 1 most important component of recovery.
I have been having really bad anxiety because I get all the tingling, prickly and crawling sensation behind the back of my head, around neck region and on my back (spinal region). I did see few neurologist and neurosurgeon but they have given me two different diagnosis (occipital neuralgia and vestibular migraines). Previously I did suffer from migraine but the symptoms got more random and persistent. Now I have dizziness, chronic pain (head, neck and back). The situation gets worse because I have anxiety attacks too. 🥹🥹
The dizziness and the attacks come with or without warning. I get insanely weak and fatigued too.
I am sorry you are going through this, but you will see from the comments on my channel, you are not alone. ❤
@@TheSteadyCoach I hope your videos on how to deal with all these might help me 🥺
