I’ve been doing these exercises for 2 months now and I’m very thankful to report that my dizziness seems to have gone. I’m not stopping them of course and I’m waiting to see an ENT specialist. But it seems to have gone. I did find very tight muscles below the occipital area which I could release with pressure and turning. I’m so grateful for your work and help.

Same here. No Doctors what's the problems for my dizziness. Now I finally know the NAME of my dizziness problem. THANK YOU Dr. Saunders for your very helpful & life saving videos. May God bless you.

[@rubyreddy00]

Update: I've now been doing these stretches and exercises for six months now. I've added ocular routine as well as several other videos to ease vertigo/dizziness. It has helped tremendously but hasn't gone away completely. I still get severe dizziness when changing head elevation, laying down, sitting up, etc. After exercise routine in the morning dizziness fades through the day until by evening I feel almost normal. When I wake up the next morning, dizziness has returned. I don't know if it's something I'm doing in my sleep or what. These videos have helped. Grateful. Thank you!

[@drjonsaunders]

I hope you continue to heal!

[@shaniceervin1465]

Do you sleep with your room door closed? Try opening a window? Do all you can do within reason before visiting a neurologist.

[@RootsInWisdom]

Have you looked into POTS?

[@justinirizarry8594]

It can also be caused by having a straight neck hence military neck or opposite c curve cervical spine. I’m dealing with military neck as we speak and my symptoms aren’t as horrible as they used to be. I found out about this condition by going to a chiropractor. I’m learning more as I go, but found that using a neck pillow and doing neck stretches have helped a lot. Just gotta do better in keeping up with my exercises. I hope you find relief soon enough and an answer to your condition.

[@golftownpro999]

I get the same...my doctor says that as you wake up and move around the joints, scar tissue etc loosens up and therefore your symptoms diminish I'm sure if you keep doing what you're doing it will improve

[@rubyreddy00]

Four Mondays ago I woke up with severe dizziness, tried ear crystals relocating exercises, no help. Then I found this video, so helpful. Three chiropractors have told me I needed to do neck exercises but I didn't. Starting my third week of daily exercise, SO helpful! They make me slightly dizzy but then the dizziness fades away throughout the day. This is the best set of exercises I've found. Thank you!

[@drjonsaunders]

I'm so happy you are starting to feel better - all the best!

[@TheLoveofcoffee]

Dr. John, I was misdiagnosed for 2 YEARS!!!! A resident doc and an eye doc confirmed I have vertigo. I suffered with no help for no reason! Just like most people here, I did tests, mri's, been to the hospital, felt like I was gonna die etc. Now that I know what I have I can actually do something about it. I saved your videos and do them everyday!!!! They help soooo much. Today, I drove!!! I haven't driven my car in a long time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤❤❤

[@JerryHerring-t3t]

Dr Jon , I started off with a serve case of vertigo and have not recovered yet. I have been having head pain,balance problems and ear pressure. I been to the ENT three times with vertigo.They said I don’t have vertigo any more but I am still having dizziness and balance issues. I had a MRI on my head and it is normal. I had a X-ray on my neck. They said i have severe arthritis in my neck. My neck is stiff and hurts at times. My range of motion on my left side is not good. Do you think my dizziness and my balance is coming from my neck.

[@yipsydearmas928]

Thanks so much. Its a wonderful thing that I found you here when looking up for some exercise to alleviate my neck stenosis and dizziness. I also share it with a friend. I will look for more videos for my ulnar nerve which is also affected. Thanks a lot!

[@Dolphin-z1v]

Hey how long did it take for you to recover from it ?

[@drjonsaunders]

My pleasure!

[@DarknessTruth24]

Yeah, how long did it take for you to recover from it? Also, what symptoms did you have and feel in your neck to start this? I initially thought I had sinus issues due to pain in the front and sides of my head and the back of my neck. A CT scan showed nothing abnormal, so I reassessed and realized the pain was radiating from the back of my neck, especially on the right side below the skull. Pressing that spot triggered dizziness and referred pain to the sides of my head, forehead, nose bridge, and front teeth. Now, I'm still experiencing dizziness, and it seems to be linked to my neck. I'm waiting to see a neurologist and likely undergo an MRI for further investigation. For the past three days, I've been doing the stretches recommended in a video I found, but it took six weeks of thinking this was sinus-related before making this connection. I hope the issue is isolated to my neck and nothing more serious. This is the best diagram I found to show the pain points: reliefchiropractic.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Cervicogenic-headaches-1.jpg Doctor, @drjonsaunders could you please confirm if these areas align with typical cervicogenic pain points? Specifically, can pain and referred dizziness originating from the lower back of the skull travel to the forehead? Additionally, is it common for such neck-related issues to cause symptoms like pressure in the nose bridge or front teeth? Your insights would be greatly appreciated and could also help others experiencing similar symptoms.

This is such a brilliant video. I've been looking through all sorts of content from eye exercises to ankle proprioception and whatnot. But this stretching and strengthening routine for the cervical spine has been most helpful to see immediate results for myself in my coordination. I've been dealing with arm weakness, pins and needles, numbness in my fingers that all came from pain in my shoulders and my neck. After finally seeing what dermatomes are and realising that I'm likely dealing with a nerve in my neck that travels all the way down my arms this was the best solution for my coordination problems. Not to mention I slept on a towel last night thanks to the pillow video he made and it resulted in no pins and needles for me so far. Thanks Dr Jon! :D

My chiropractor fixes 75% of my dizziness problems every time I see him but the fix lasts only a few days. i need to do exercises on my own daily to combat this since I can't see the chiropractor every day. This is an excellent routine! I'll be doing these from now on. I feel that they do help.

It’s definitely causing some of it. Since suffering a concussion, 4 years ago, I have chronic dizziness. Some of it, is also from issues with my eyes, caused by the same accident.

[@drjonsaunders]

Best wishes in your recovery!

I'm in the exact same boat. Post concussion syndrome from a severe concussion over 4 years ago

Dr Jon...will all these exercises also help with tinnitus that comes and goes? Thank you for sharing this informative video.

[@drjonsaunders]

Yes they can if the tinnitus is coming from the neck (somatic tinnitus), and this video should help as well: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYjIoWSgl6iWisU

[@saralouise2453]

Thanks for this video and these helpful exercises. I suffer greatly muscle tension in my back and neck and it creates a horrible unbalanced, dizzy feeling. I know my issues are caused by both anxiety and posture. I find that they kind of feed off eachother. Do you have any exercises like these but for tension in the back muscles?

Hi Jon 🙂 I had a neck injury for around 6-7 years ago, and have been dizzy and fatigued ever since (go to bed at 7-8 pm every day)... The doctors in my country have given up on me, so I have for years, tried youtube, and articles... One of the latest channels I found was yours. have been all over the place, with dizzyness, but it seems/im guessing that I have both Cervical dizzynes and Earstones/BPPV, so that has made it really hard to distinguish the symptoms, depending on when I went to a doctor. Also the triggers for the dizzyness part, is triggered by, tiredness, allergy, coffee, alcohol. so It has been extremely hard to identify what happens and the cause. I work as a software developer, so I sit at the computer all day, which is not great for the neck. Anyways to my question, You mentioned that tiredness can "trigger" the cervical dizzyness, have you heard about allergies/Inflammation, as an trigger? I had a very specific episode, were I was starting on my Grass allergy vaccine (pills), and when I took it my HRV went like crazy, got hot, and when I got up, I got this dizzyness, that felt a lot like the dizzyness from the neck... And how does the tiredness impact? is it because the muscles get tired? I can lay in bed, in the day, because i'm tired, and looking at my phone, and I get CRAZY dizzy, like my body thinks I'm dying, and have to protect my heart. It takes a second, but it feels like all blood is going to the heart, and I get REALLY sweaty! I tried it once, were I did the Epleys, and on the fourth movement i didnt just get the feeling of the stones/crystals aligning, but the body just went into alarm mode! thought I was dying. So far i'm seeing a osteopath, every second week, which keep me up, but its hard.! And Now I found your channel, and your exercises, i'm adding those to my repertoire ! Thanks and sorry for the long message 🙂 have a great day, and keep up the great work

[@drjonsaunders]

I hope you get better soon. :)

[@golftownpro999]

I just tried the exercises for the first time and I can tell that this is really going to work!! Thank you so much!!

Can I do those exercises twice daily or just once a day?

[@jarodcunningham8742]

Hey, great video! I have been dealing with chronic dizziness for close to 15 years now that doctors have been unable to explain aside from suggesting that stress and anxiety might be a culprit. The cervicogenic dizziness symptoms sure seem to match up with mine, and I imagine my anxiety leads to neck tension issues. My dizziness has gotten loads better with Klonopin, which operates as a muscle relaxer to a degree, but I have noticed that weight lifting, bench press and bicep curls in particular, make my dizziness much worse. Usually the dizziness is pretty extreme days after weight lifting. Do you have any advice on how I can keep lifting weights without messing up my neck muscles and exacerbating my dizziness issues? Thanks for a great video, I'll be doing these exercises everyday!

[@makeshkumar8887]

me to have same problem. some doctor told me ulcer problem im taking that medicine .

[@drjonsaunders]

It's hard to provide advice without seeing you, but make sure your posture is excellent when lifting...all the best!

[@drjonsaunders]

Sorry to hear that.

[@jarodcunningham8742]

Thank you for the prompt response. Is it possible that these exercises could make dizziness worse for a few days after they are done? I apologize if this was already addressed in another comment. Thanks!

[@KSRobinette]

Wow! Thank you. I never heard of Cervicogenic dizziness until today, after experiencing severe dizziness in bed while stretching that turned my head to the right toward the chronically stiff neck muscles there. Your exercises made a big difference in just one try. I can tell they will help a lot with daily repetition. Thank you so.... much!

[@drjonsaunders]

You are so welcome!

[@DarknessTruth24]

Any update for this? Would be good to know if this finally helped you? As I am currently dealing with this also.

[@ekaterinatolkacheva8698]

I have been dizzy for the past 2 months to the point I would feel my body would switch off in the middle of my walk. The doctor has suggested physiotherapy because he thought the reason is a neck. While Im waiting for my appointment I decided to try your exercises at home. Literally an hour before I couldn't walk outside without stopping to keep the balance every 5 minute. Now, just an hour later, I went out to get my laundry and felt LIKE A HUMAN. The surroundings weren't circling around me and I didn't feel like I will fall right now. Wow! I do feel though that the last set of exercises might, on the opposite, stress my bacl and shoulders too much which might lead to more problems since they activate when I try to push myself with a hand. Not sure how I feel about that part of the exercises, but either way... WOW

[@drjonsaunders]

Thanks for sharing...best wishes!

Hi Ekaterina how are you doing now?

I just started doing the stretches from video. I am a painter and when I do over head work I will experience dizziness. Doing this video has made dizziness go away..I am so thankful.

[@drjonsaunders]

Great - thanks for sharing!

[@jdssurf]

I know we’ve talked before…………..I just had to start doing these again, I think it’s the only thing that helped. When the occipital lift adjustments were not. I’ve been sharing your videos. I’m kinda struggling with stress and anxiety again now, and can’t figure out if it’s triggering my neck to cause the nausea, or if it’s just my stomach alone from the anxiety and stress that causes me to need to eventualy vomit. I will feel a little better, but if I’m working on a machine, or problem, the harder it gets, the more nauseous I get and eventually have to bail to vomit. This has been off and on for a year. Any thoughts bud?

[@drjonsaunders]

Just keep at it, even on the days you feel you are taking a step back...you got this!

[@rockyfjord5338]

Seems like good stuff, will try as I have severe dizziness or vertigo. Medical practitioners have been grossly incompetent.

HELP! 🚨 As soon as I started doing this routine I began to feel that “drunk” dizziness. Why? I do think the vertigo I experience is related to my neck - I have that “nerd neck” going on + stiffness and discomfort. I can’t help but push my head forward + bad posture. My body is all kinds of messed up. 😞 I want to add, my dizziness happens about 2-3 times a day where I feel like I have to sit down for fear of passing out. It’s been happening for almost 4 weeks now since I started working again. Is there is specific pillow you’d recommend too? For relief

[@drjonsaunders]

The first thing you should do is see your doctor to get an accurate diagnosis. All the best.

[@blank1505]

Hi Dr. Jon, how often in a day can I do these sets of exercises especially the crane cervical flexion? I was diagnosed with cervical spondylosis and feeling dizzy and imbalance whenever i stand or walk. Went to neurology, ENT and checked with ophthalmologist as well to rule out other causes. ENT said no issues with my ears. EEG result from neurology report was normal. I have a mild migraine but very unusual to have dizziness. I am seeing a orthopaedic Physiotherapy and she's doing manual therapy and in addition to that i would like to try doing these exercises for my dizziness. Dizziness really debilitates my day to day activities especially my work. Thank you in advance.

Best Dr. Saunders! What about Shoulder impingement, causing a lot of obvious problems, but also more "unknown" symptoms... So that MD's looking in the wrong direction or actually miss out several problems that can be read from "trigger points"; rhomboids, rotator, trapezius or being it self a trigger from Cervical area?
