[NFBP-Talk] Question about blind people with vertigo

Wed Aug 26 20:20:51 UTC 2026

There is a gentle manipulation of your neck my  ENT doctor did that helped immensely to get rid of the pulling to the right queasy feeling. You might look that direction. I hear Physical Therapists are trained to do this also. I only experienced the neck manipulation from the ENT doctors I saw. I gather they show how to do this on YouTube. Sorry, me, Becky would go to the professional ENT doctor. 

The doctor is not cracking your neck. He uses the manipulations to move the crystals in your ear to where they should be. It is a gentle turning of your head right for so long then, I think left for so long then back to the right. It is very relaxing. For me it stopped most of the queasy  feeling right away, say withing 20 minutes . I got very tired afterward and lay down when I got home. I was not queasy, nor did I pull to the right like a drunk person. It took a day or so to feel close to my happy self. 

Warmly,

Becky living now in Washinton State for twenty years and still cares deeply for her PA family

Donna, My name is Denise Johnson I am a member of keystone chapter. Pray all is well and you are receiving the information that you require. I want to thank you the responses about vertigo leads me to believe that might be my diagnosis. My primary has not said that is what I have however I tend to go/walk to the right and I am unaware my aide informed me 3months ago as she began pulling me out of harms way.

I had it and I described it as I felt like my head was spinning around
