New ways to combat dizziness
Goodbye to vertigo: INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS WITH EQUIMEDI AND EQUIFIT
Dizziness affects people of all ages and can significantly impact quality of life. This often leads to the question: “How can vertigo be effectively treated?” In this article, we explore the causes of dizziness and present two pioneering products: EQUIMedi and EQUIFit, which not only offer innovative solutions in the fight against dizziness, but also represent a promise for a better quality of life.
CAUSES OF DIZZINESS
Dizziness can be caused by a variety of factors, including vestibular disorders, neurological diseases, medication side effects, dehydration, and low blood pressure. Understanding these causes is the first step toward effective treatment.
A NEW CHAPTER IN DIZZINESS DIAGNOSTICS WITH EQUIMEDI
EQUIMedi, a certified medical product, revolutionizes dizziness diagnostics through precise measurement of swaying and compensating movements. It provides objective data that helps doctors more effectively identify causes of dizziness and initiate targeted treatments. Thanks to its compact design and easy handling, EQUIMedi supports quick and cost-efficient diagnostics as well as monitoring the success of therapy.
MODERN THERAPIES FOR DIZZINESS
Various therapeutic approaches, such as vestibular rehabilitation training (VRT), Cawthorne-Cooksey exercises, and the Epley maneuver, have been shown to be effective in relieving dizziness symptoms and improving balance
BACK TO BALANCE WITH EQUIFIT
EQUIFit is the ideal partner for balance training at home. Through simple exercises and acoustic biofeedback, it motivates users to train and improve their balance every day. This practical solution makes training not only effective, but also accessible and fun.
MORE THAN JUST DEVICES – A STEP TO A BETTER LIFE
EQUIMedi and EQUIFit stand for hope and progress in dealing with dizziness. They offer concrete solutions to a widespread problem and open the way to greater stability and self-determination. We invite you to take the first step towards a more stable and self-determined life with EQUIMedi and EQUIFit.
Combating dizziness often requires a multidisciplinary approach. By combining modern therapies and specific training equipment, those affected can effectively improve their balance and increase their quality of life.
Important information about the use of EQUIMedi and EQUIFit
While EQUIMedi and EQUIFit provide innovative support in diagnosing and training to deal with dizziness, it is important to understand that they should be part of a comprehensive treatment plan. These devices are not intended to be a sole solution or cure for vertigo problems. Instead, they complement existing therapies and measures by enabling precise diagnostics and effective balance training. It is crucial that users and specialist staff use these products as part of an individually tailored health concept, which also includes specialist medical advice.
When medication causes vertigo and dizziness
Anyone who has ever drunk a glass of wine knows that dizziness can be caused not only by disease, but also by chemical substances, such as medications. But not only alcohol can cause dizziness and balance disorders. Many medications have an effect on the brain or the cardiovascular system and can trigger more or less severe dizziness and vertigo. It is worthwhile, then, to take a look at the drug list for chronic dizziness symptoms. This is particularly the case in elderly patients, who are weakened by pre-existing conditions and often take a whole list of different medications.
But what does “can cause dizziness” actually mean? If you read through the leaflet or searches on Google, you quickly get the impression that actually every drug available can cause dizziness. But it is not that bad after all: Above all, two large groups of medicines should be mentioned here: First the central acting (meaning acting on the brain) sedatives and anti-depressants and secondly many antihypertensive agents.
In the first group, it is primarily strong tranquilizers and sleep aids that affect the brain in a similar way to alcohol and disturb the balance regulation. Here is the danger of falling particularly large, so that patients with pre-existing dizziness should strictly avoid such drugs. But also antidepressants, whose use in recent years due to the increasing number of mental illness is constantly increasing, can cause diffuse dizziness.
In the antihypertensive agents especially beta-blockers and dehydrating agents (diuretics) can cause dizziness. This is caused by a reduced blood flow to the brain and usually manifests itself as feelings of insecurity, “becoming black in front of the eyes” and a slight wobble.
Much less common are dizziness complaints due to a medical damage to the organ of equilibrium in the inner ear. But here too certain antibiotics (gentamycin) or chemotherapeutic agents can damage the sensitive sensory cells and thus lead to balance disorders.
