Exercises to Treat Visual Vertigo and Motion Sensitivity

Visually-induced motion sickness, visually induced dizziness, or visual vertigo are generic terms to describe dizziness triggered by visual stimuli of some kind. This can also be a contributing factor to those who suffer from motion sensitivity. The dizziness brought on by such visual stimuli can be described as spinning, brain fog, rocking, floating, heaviness, etc. The visual stimuli itself can also be quite varied and include looking at busy patterns such as stripes, dots, checkerboard pattern or when confronted with moving objects, such as when a large object, like a bus, moves past you when sitting in a stopped car.
In a normal individual, such visual stimuli may cause fleeting if any symptoms, but for someone who suffers from visual vertigo, it may cause significant persistent and/or recurrent dizzy symptoms on a regular basis.
Exercises can be performed to help this condition, ultimately resulting in normal balance.
All exercises should be performed for 20 seconds. To get the best results, do the exercises 3-5 times a day with a variety of distances and visual backgrounds. If you feel too dizzy, slow down or use a smaller movement. Work at your own pace, but remember this exercise needs to feel a little challenging to be effective.

How many days should we do these exercises to feel normal again?

[@farhanhira]

How many days should one be doing these exercises?

[@bhavandeepmann5256]

Is it normal to feel more dizzy after doing this

[@davidclark3603]

Drs and other health professionals haven't got a clue. All I get is strange looks and plenty of sympathy. I'm on my own with this. I've had balance problems for 13 years now and it's getting worse!
Thanks for your help. The world needs people like you!

[@tipcoder]

Does it work for you?

[@michelesoto5919]

Same here! Since 2009.

[@baljinderramchurn3461]

Same problem for me too. Doctors just look blankly!

[@arshmaanali714]

Did it help? Do you have anxiety?

[@davidclark3603]

I have loads of anxiety. I stutter very badly when I talk!

[@ZeeSuzukiEvery]
