Research Summary
A recent study published in Headache explores the effectiveness of vestibular rehabilitation (VR) in treating vestibular migraine (VM), a common migraine subtype. Despite limited treatment guidelines, VR has shown promise in managing VM, focusing on improving dizziness-related quality of life. This systematic review and meta-analysis included seven studies with 413 patients, mostly middle-aged women, revealing a significant reduction in Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) scores. The mean improvement was -29, surpassing the clinically important difference of 18 points. However, high variability across studies suggests further research is needed to standardize VR protocols for optimal VM management.
