Investigation of dizziness
- Comprehensive medical history and examination: we get to the bottom of the cause of your dizziness with a thorough medical history and physical examination.
- Specialised ENT diagnostics: using specialised ENT examinations such as hearing tests, balance tests and functional tests of the paranasal sinuses, we determine the cause of your dizziness.
- Examination methods: where necessary, we also use more advanced examination methods such as computer nystagmography (CNG) or the head-impulse test to establish the cause of your dizziness beyond doubt.
- Individual therapy: once the diagnosis has been made, we work together with you to develop an individual treatment plan tailored to your needs and to the cause of your dizziness.
