Vestibular Rehab exercise

Just a really quick update.

There is a silver lining in the whole adaptive and vestibular rehabilitation exercises. For whatever chemicals are released by the brain/medulla to create the vomit response when we have dizzy spells, most sufferers will agree this makes you extremely tired. So tired in fact, you sleep for a good 4-8 hours after an attack.

Well I can tell you being an insomniac, that VRT exercises releases the same kind of chemicals that help you sleep. I've been doing this exercise without stop for the last 3 months, with the exception of 2 days. After every exercise, absolutely destroyed. Yes it is a silver lining but it does help you get some much needed rest that your body is probably asking for.
