Symptoms of a Balance or Vestibular Disorder
Motion Intolerance
Motion intolerance includes both dizziness and vertigo (a spinning sensation), which often occur after rapid head movements or turning too quickly. You may experience these symptoms for just a few seconds or they can continue for several hours at a time. Dizziness can be a symptom of hearing loss, so consider having your hearing tested.
Imbalance or Unsteadiness
Difficulty walking, imbalance, and unsteadiness on your feet are balance disorder symptoms that are usually associated with any form of upright movement. You might experience a floating sensation, stumbling over your feet, the sensation of falling, or actually falling.
Vestibular Testing Is Covered by Most Insurance Policies
With a physician’s referral, vestibular testing is covered by most insurance policies and Medicare Part B. If you are experiencing a loss of balance, unsteadiness, dizziness, or vertigo/spinning sensations, we strongly recommend scheduling a vestibular test as soon as possible.
