The most common diseases causing dizziness and vertigo in children are recurrent vertigo of childhood (RVC) and vestibular migraine (VM). While RVC is difficult to diagnose due to the exclusion process, or process of elimination, when evaluating the disorder, vestibular migraine is much easier to diagnose. If your child demonstrates any of the indicators below, it may be in their best interest to have a vestibular evaluation.

Vertigo and dizziness are very common after a concussion. When your brain collides with your skull, it can disrupt the signals from your eyes and inner ears regarding your balance system. While most vestibular effects will fade over time (as soon as a few days) after the concussion, some patients require significantly more treatment. Its important to be evaluated by a medical provider following a concussion to ensure that no long-term concerns are present.

Our bodies receive information about our surroundings from three systems: our eyes, our inner ears, and our bodies (called proprioception). If one or more of these systems are not sending information to your brain correctly, you may feel dizzy.
Studies show that on average, patients who experience vertigo, dizziness, or imbalance are often seen by 4 or 5 doctors before they receive an accurate diagnosis (Agrawal Y, Carey JP, Della Santina CC, Schubert MC, Minor LB. Disorders of balance and vestibular function in US adults: data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 2001-2004. Arch
Intern Med. 2009;169(10):938-944. **VEDA survey, 2011).

Its Balance Awareness Week! Vestibular Disorders Association (VeDA) hosts BAW in an effort to educate the general public about vestibular disorders and balance issues. Balance Awareness Week is important because it shines a spotlight on vestibular disorders—conditions that are common, often disabling, and frequently misunderstood or misdiagnosed. These conditions aren't visible from the outside, but they can affect every aspect of a person's life. Without greater awareness, too many people face delayed diagnoses, limited access to care, and the feeling that no one understands what they're going through.
Follow along with us this week while we provide education on some of the most common types of vestibular disorders and solutions for anyone who may be experiencing imbalance.

Have you ever wondered why your audiologist asks so many questions about a variety of health concerns? What do your kidneys have to do with your ears? As it turns out, hearing loss can accompany multiple other health concerns. If you have ever been diagnosed with cancer, heart or kidney disease, or any of the concerns listed below, it may be a good idea to have your hearing evaluated for decline.

Tinnitus can be associated with a range of health conditions, including vestibular disorders, audiological problems, and behavioral health issues.
The relationship between tinnitus and a comorbid (occurring at the same time) disease is variable and complex. Not everyone has the same symptoms or experience.
If you or a loved one experience tinnitus and you're looking for information, schedule an appointment with us for a hearing evaluation!

If you live in a city, you’re likely no stranger to the constant hum and noise of urban life. Traffic, construction, crowded streets, sirens, and bustling public spaces are part of the soundtrack of modern life. But have you ever stopped to consider the impact this urban noise pollution could have on your hearing health? While age-related hearing loss is common, noise-induced hearing loss is rising, especially among people living in noisy urban environments.

The World Health Organization (WHO) considers 70 dB to be the maximum safe noise level for continuous all-day exposure. Still, many urban sounds regularly surpass that, with traffic noise averaging 85 dB or more. Long-term exposure to noise at or above 85 dB can cause gradual hearing damage.

What makes noise-induced hearing loss especially concerning is that it’s cumulative. Over time, even moderate noise exposure, such as city traffic or loud public spaces, can lead to permanent hearing damage. If you are concerned about noise-induced hearing loss, call to schedule an appointment today!

Hearing screenings are an important part of a newborn baby's care. They check how well a baby hears and can find any hearing differences early on.

Parents and caregivers can have a hard time identifying if a baby has trouble hearing until it starts to affect their development. A hearing screening can catch these issues early so families can get the support and services their child may need as soon as possible.

Hearing screenings are quick, painless, and only take a few minutes (Oregon Health Authority).
