Vertigo & Balance Clinic

About Our Vertigo Clinic

If the room spins when you turn over in bed, you feel suddenly off-balance walking down stairs, or you've fallen because of dizziness, you don't have to live with it — most vertigo is highly treatable, often in a single visit. The Vertigo Clinic at THANC Hospital in Kilpauk, Chennai treats benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), Ménière's disease with recurrent spinning attacks and hearing changes, vestibular neuritis (sudden severe vertigo after a viral illness), vertigo and imbalance after head injury, dizziness with hearing loss or tinnitus, persistent unsteadiness in older adults, fall risk and gait problems, and dizziness that's interfering with driving, work, or daily life. We also see patients who've been told "it's just stress" without a proper inner-ear assessment.

Our diagnosis is structured: bedside positional tests (Dix-Hallpike), videonystagmography (VNG) to objectively measure eye movements, head impulse test, and audiology when there are hearing symptoms. The most common cause — BPPV — is usually fixed in clinic with a simple Epley repositioning manoeuvre, often with same-day relief. For Ménière's, vestibular neuritis, and post-traumatic vertigo, we combine medication, lifestyle guidance, and structured vestibular rehabilitation therapy (a personalised exercise programme that retrains your balance system). Surgery is rarely needed. We see all ages — children, adults, and seniors at fall risk — with otology, audiology, and rehab teams under one roof. Please consult a vertigo specialist if spinning episodes keep coming back, dizziness lasts more than a few days, you've had an unexplained fall, or balance problems are limiting daily life. Located in central Chennai with easy access from across Tamil Nadu, we offer dependable, transparent, and affordable vertigo and balance care — all under one roof.
