I`m Davey Reed,on the Pro staff with Dudley Sports, have been in Senior Softball for 18 years, would like to talk about vertigo and how to still play. Vertigo is another name for dizziness. About a year ago, when I moved my head quickly or looked into something bright, I would start to get dizzy and throwing up. I lost 20 lbs. by Christmas. I had alot of tests done, everything was good, except, the Doc said, as we age, the crystals in your inner ear die off and don`t get replaced. When they get out of alignment they cause dissiness. Thru therapy, I learned 4 exercises that have helped me,that I would like to share: RELAX, then either sitting or standing, focus your eyes on a POINTin the distance. Move your chin down to your chest, 15 times without moving your eyes. THEN; 15 times move your chin upward, eyes still on your POINT, THEN: 15 times move your head from side to side keeping your focus on your POINT. THEN: holding your head still, move your eyes from sid to side 15 times. These exercises have really helped me and I`m still able to play. Good Luck with the exercises. Thanks
