- People may prefer to start treatment from the comfort of their own home. Physicians recommend that people suffering from dizziness who would like to treat themselves begin with fluid intakes and eating food. Taking in a little extra water everyday will help your body stay nice and hydrated, and could prevent minor cases of dizziness. If dizziness occurs when you are changing positions, moving slower than normal will help. Sometimes the brain and your body are moving at two different speeds, so slowing one of them down allows the other to catch up, using less oxygen and preventing the dizziness from happening.
You will need someone to help you with this next treatment. Having an anxiety coach is very important. People who are anxious are more susceptible to feeling dizzy when an anxious moment occurs. Reassurance from a friend or family member is all it takes to calm an anxious person down, so have a chat with them and talk them through what you want them to say to you when the time comes. For people who have chronic dizziness, make the living quarters safe. Installing a railing or laying down a tub mat can help reassure people that they will stay safe even if a dizziness spell hits them. - There are also medical treatments available for dizziness. For severe cases, emergency blood transfusions or surgery are necessary to treat dizziness if it is caused by a heart attack or stroke. Dizziness caused by dehydration can be treated through intravenous fluids (IV), and sometimes pure oxygen is administered via a breathing apparatus. Whatever the cause, medical treatments are only effective when the dizziness is treated early enough, so as soon as dizziness strikes get yourself to your physician.
