Spencer, IA (KICD)– We have all more than likely experienced some sort of spinning sensation in our daily lives but causes the odd feeling?

Craig Cantrall, a physical therapist at Spencer Hospital, tells us before a diagnosis can be reached for dizziness and vertigo it is important to know the difference between the two terms.

Cantrall says there are a number of different causes for dizziness and vertigo but one of the most common is Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo or BPPV.

The good news is BPPV can typically be treated in just a few sessions with the physical therapist. More information can be learned by talking to your doctor or contacting Spencer Hospital Rehab Services.
