Common causes like BPPV (displaced inner ear crystals) can often be improved quickly with the right treatment. We find which part of your balance system needs help.
Find Out What's Causing Yours
Medication and rest calm the symptoms. They don't retrain your balance system.
Many people are told to take medication, avoid movement, or "give it time." But when symptoms keep coming back, or never fully go away, it's a sign the system hasn't been properly retrained. In fact, avoiding movement often makes the system more sensitive over time. At Back In Motion, we help patients in Fort Myers and Cape Coral uncover what's truly disrupting their balance. The real causes often include:
- BPPV (displaced inner ear crystals)
- Reduced inner ear function (vestibular hypofunction)
- Dizziness after a virus or concussion
- Neck problems that affect balance
- A mismatch between what your eyes and inner ear sense

Common questions about vertigo treatment
Can vertigo be treated in physical therapy?
Yes. Vestibular rehabilitation is a well-established treatment for many types of dizziness. For BPPV, a simple repositioning maneuver can often bring quick relief, and other conditions improve with targeted eye, head, and balance exercises.
What is BPPV?
BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo) happens when tiny crystals in the inner ear shift out of place, causing brief spinning with movements like rolling over in bed or looking up. It's one of the most common, and most treatable, causes of vertigo.
When should I get emergency care?
Call 911 if dizziness comes on suddenly along with slurred speech, facial drooping, weakness or numbness on one side, double vision, trouble walking, or a severe headache. These can be signs of a stroke.
Should I avoid moving my head?
Usually not. Avoiding movement can make your balance system more sensitive over time. We'll show you which movements are safe now and gradually build your tolerance.
