According to studies from the National Institutes of Health, 90 million Americans (42% of the population) will complain to their doctors about dizziniess at least once in their lifetime. Most patients see an average of five doctors before their dizziness/balance complaints are addressed. The Dizziness/Balance program at Susquehanna Neuroscience Center offers evaluation by a specialized physical therapist (ask your family doctor for a referral) followed by an appropriate treatment plan or referral to a specialty doctor.

Dizziness Signs and Symptoms:

• Light-headedness.
• Sense of spinning (vertigo).
• Nausea.
• Imbalance or instability.
• Problems walking.

Dizziness can be more than a discomfort—it can be dangerous, causing falls and injury and may even disable a person. To find out more about the cause of your dizziness and for proper treatment options, call Susquehanna Neuroscience Center at 570-321-2681 or 1-800-326-7519.
