Abstract

The pathophysiology of the dizziness is not uniform. A variety of etiology of dizziness and various complaints in the dizzy patients makes their treatment difficult. Many of the dizzy patients complaining dizziness for long time have not only dizziness but also insomnia and headache, which is quite similar to the patients with depression or anxiety. These patients have usually not only physical but also mental problems. Many patients in department of otolaryngology have anxiety and depression. It is mandatory to treat these patients with a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach including psychological and physical techniques. In this study we report on the treatment of intractable Meniere disease with autogenic training and the result of vestibular rehabilitation to intractable dizzy patients.
