Background: Vestibular migraine is a form of migraine in which individuals suffer from a combination of vertigo, dizziness or loss of balance along with other symptoms of migraine. Vestibular migraine (VM) is likely to be the second most prevalent reason for dizziness and affects approximately 3% of population. At middle aged females, the prevalence of migrainous vertigo was 5.0%. Unlike traditional migraines, vestibular migraines may not always present with headaches but can significantly impact athletic performance by causing episodes of unsteadiness, nausea, and difficulty concentrating.
Objective: The purpose of this study is to find the effectiveness of vestibular rehabilitation for vestibular migraine among female athletes.
Methodology: Through convenient sampling 30 participants with vestibular migraine are included for this study. Group A received Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy and Group B remained as a Control group and undergoes usual therapy. A received design protocol for six weeks with the sessions supervised for five days in a week.
Results: Independent Sample T-Test shows significant difference in DHI (Dizziness Handicap Inventory) scale.
Conclusion: In this study exercise protocol is effective for treating dizziness in vestibular migraine patients (p<0.05).
