How to reduce constant vertigo/ Dizziness - #8839
Mike
Always get dizzy as soon as I start walking. I feel I will fall down. Dizziness makes me walk not in a straight pattern but moving towards my left. MRI & CT Scans are ok. This has been ongoing for 10yrs. No treatment has worked

Based on Ayurvedic principles, this condition may indicate an imbalance in the Vata dosha, particularly related to the nervous system and circulation. The dizziness and tendency to veer left could suggest an issue with the movement of prana (vital energy) or disturbed apana vayu, which governs downward energy in the body. The long-term nature of this issue points to a chronic imbalance. You may benefit from a combination of herbal treatments like Brahmi, Ashwagandha, and Shankhpushpi to support brain function and balance, along with lifestyle changes such as regular, grounding exercises, meditation, and a diet that strengthens the nervous system. It’s important to consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized treatment plan.

Wow, that sounds really frustrating. Living with constant dizziness for that long must have been a real challenge. It’s like having your world tilt unexpectedly, making every step uncertain. But even with clear MRI and CT scans, Ayurveda might have a trick or two up its sleeve that could help you find balance in the vertigo chaos.
In Ayurveda, dizziness can often be connected to a Vata dosha imbalance. Vata governs movement and flow within the body, and when it's out of whack, symptoms like dizziness crop up. To tackle this, we can dive into some lifestyle and dietary adjustments that might ease the spinning.
Starting with your diet, consider incorporating grounding and warming foods. Think about hearty soups, stews, and plenty of cooked veggies. Foods like sweet potatoes, carrots, beets, and whole grains like rice can be grounding and help stabilize a swirling Vata. Avoid cold, raw, or overly spiced foods; they might aggravate the dizzy spells. Even something as simple as adding ginger tea to your routine could be helpful, as ginger is known to support digestion and enhance balance.
Daily self-massage (Abhyanga) with warm sesame oil can also be super beneficial. It not only calms Vata dosha but nurtures and stabilizes the nervous system. Try this before a warm bath or shower in the morning to start your day on a more centered note.
Pranayama, or breathing exercises, can also do wonders. Nadi Shodhana, known as alternate nostril breathing, can ground your mind and balance energy flow. A couple of rounds in the morning could really clear your head a bit.
Lastly, make sure you're watching your stress levels. High stress can really knock Vata off-balance even more. Maybe there's room for meditation or yoga to center your thoughts? Or just a few minutes each day to relax in whatever way suits you best.
If you still experience severe symptoms, it might be good to consult closely with an Ayurvedic practitioner who can tailor these suggestions more specifically to your body's unique makeup.
