Hi Anjela
It might be helpful when searching for solutions to dizziness to understand what is going on with Chiari dizziness ie why it is happening. There are lots of different causes for people to be dizzy and they need to be ruled out through assessment with vestibular therapists. When they have ruled out peripheral causes or treated that component as necessary, they can then focus on central issues. In Chiari causing dizziness the problem is the brain is not processing vestibular information correctly. Re-training the brain through neuro-development (primitive exercises) gets the brain working properly. The problem with having Chiari without the surgery is that the cause of “brain strain” continues with the herniation and exercises would no doubt need to be on a somewhat regular basis.
