Jah Healthcare Center - Dizziness and Vertigo Clinic - Irbid

The Dizziness, Vertigo, and Balance Clinic at Jah Healthcare Center is a specialized facility that employs an integrated medical approach to accurately diagnose the root cause of dizziness and provide appropriate treatment—swiftly and efficiently.

Services Offered by the Dizziness and Vertigo Clinic

• Accurate Diagnosis: Distinguishing between vestibular vertigo (related to the inner ear) and central dizziness (related to the nervous system or blood circulation).
• Repositioning Maneuvers (e.g., the Epley Maneuver): A quick and effective, non-surgical treatment for various types of vertigo, including positional vertigo.
• Balance and Vestibular System Testing: Evaluating inner ear function and the neurological responses responsible for maintaining body stability and balance during movement.
• Vestibular Rehabilitation Programs: Customized exercises designed to help the brain adapt, improve balance, and reduce the severity of vertigo episodes.
• Laboratory and Imaging Tests: Conducting diagnostic tests, as well as vascular and cervical spine imaging—in coordination with the center’s radiology and laboratory departments—to rule out causes such as poor blood circulation (ischemia) or anemia.

Conditions Treated at the Clinic

• Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV): Sudden, intense episodes of vertigo triggered by changes in head position (such as rolling over or lying down); this is the most common cause of dizziness.
• Vestibular Neuritis: An inflammation that leads to sudden, persistent vertigo, often accompanied by nausea and a loss of balance. Meniere's Disease: An inner ear disorder that causes episodes of vertigo, accompanied by tinnitus (ringing in the ears), a feeling of fullness in the ear, or hearing loss.
• Cervicogenic Dizziness: Dizziness associated with neck pain or muscle spasms in the cervical spine.
• Vestibular Migraine: Episodes of vertigo occurring in conjunction with migraines or sensitivity to light and sound.
• Dizziness related to hypotension (low blood pressure) and insufficient perfusion (reduced blood flow): Initial assessment of dizziness resulting from blood pressure fluctuations or electrolyte imbalances, conducted in coordination with internal medicine and cardiology clinics.
