A Journey to Finding Relief of Vestibular Issues

You don’t have to live with the uncomfortable symptoms of vestibular issues. Most patients are unaware that their dizziness and balance symptoms are likely coming from the inner ear. With a proper diagnosis and treatment plan, you can get your life back and experience improved health and wellness all by consulting with the knowledgeable team at Midwest Dizziness and Balance Institute.
How Does it Work?

Anyone can call and make an appointment. Only specific insurances require a referral from a physician. When you call, we will schedule 2 appointments. Once you have scheduled, as a courtesy, we will verify your insurance benefits and provide you an ESTIMATE of what your cost will be. The first appointment will be a phone call where you will speak with our medical assistant over the phone and the history of symptoms will be reviewed. The second appointment is approximately 3 hours of testing in the office. The balance system is very intricate and there is not one test to assess the entire system, so a series of tests are administered (see the services page for the descriptions of the tests). You will go through 4 different rooms for us to administer multiple small tests to put the picture together. Having all the data on the 10 inner ear spots will allow us to figure out what is causing your dizziness, vertigo, and imbalance. We are one of the only places in St. Louis that tests the ENTIRE system. The initial assessment is non-invasive and painless.
After your assessment, you will schedule your results appointment on your way out. We will analyze all your results and when you come back in for the Results appointment, we will go through all the results and suggested treatments for each finding. ​
​
We use Advanced Vestibular Treatment™ to treat dizziness, vertigo, and imbalance disorders. Treatments can range between 1-12 visits, typically include home exercises to assist in your recovery, & are specialized for every patient. Our treatment is 85-90% effective in reducing the frequency, severity and intensity of your symptoms.
You can always consult with your provider on the treatment plan outlined, your condition, and what to expect from treatment. Having open communication from both parties will aid in the success of your treatments.
​

Kind Words from Real Patients
Jamie and her staff are absolutely amazing. I was having bouts of extreme dizziness that would come out of nowhere, making everything difficult from driving, going to work, to just rolling over in bed. Staff were so kind, and would bring me in anytime I needed for an evaluation and adjustment. They were also able to come up with a diagnosis and worked on improving gravity of the sensors in my ears. I am happy to report that I am dizzy-free for well over 3 months now. Highly recommend!
