Treatment
There are various options for treating balance disorders. One option includes treatment for a disease or disorder that may be contributing to the balance problem, such as ear infection, stroke, or multiple sclerosis. Individual treatment will vary and will be based upon symptoms, medical history, general health, examination by a physician, and the results of medical tests. Most types of balance disorders will require balance training, prescribed by a physiotherapist.

[edit] BPPV
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is caused by misplaced crystals within the ear. Treatment, simply put, involves moving these crystals out of areas which cause vertigo and into areas where they do not. A number of exercises have been developed to shift these crystals. The following article explains with diagrams how these exercises can be performed at the office or at home with some help: [3] The success of these exercises depends on them being performed correctly.

The two exercises explained in the above article are:

The Brandt-Daroff Exercises, which can be done at home and have a very high success rate but are unpleasant and time consuming to perform.
The Epley”s exercises[3] are often performed by a doctor but can be performed at home. Various devices are available for home BPPV treatment. [4]

[edit] Ménière”s disease
Diet: Dietary changes such as reducing intake of sodium (salt) may help. For some people, reducing alcohol, caffeine, and/or avoiding nicotine may be helpful. Stress has also been shown to make the symptoms associated with ménière”s worse
Drugs:
Beta-histine (Serc) is available in some countries and is thought to reduce the frequency of symptoms
Diuretics such as hydrochlorohyiazide (Diazide)have also been shown to reduce the frequency of symptoms
Aminoglycoside antibiotics (gentamicin) can used to treat Ménière”s disease. Systemic streptomycin (given by injection) and topical gentamicin (given directly to the inner ear) are useful for their ability to affect the hair cells of the balance system. Gentamicin also can affect the hair cells of the cochlea, though, and cause hearing loss in about 10% of patients. In cases that do not respond to medical management, surgery may be indicated.
Surgery for meniere”s disease is a last resort
