As we age, in addition to hearing loss we may have to contend with equilibrium and balance problems that can lead to fall related injuries. Chronic balance disorders affect nearly 8 million people in the U.S. They are most commonly caused by BPPV, a condition in which calcium crystals in the inner ear break loose, causing the sensation of vertigo. Canalith repositioning is a safe and effective nonsurgical procedure to correct this problem.
