Many people who experience migraine also have feelings of dizziness or vertigo. When this happens repeatedly, it is known as vestibular migraine.

The condition is also referred to as migraine-associated dizziness or vertigo, migrainous vertigo, or migraine-related vestibulopathy.

The causes of vestibular migraine are not always clear but relate to the inner ear, nerves, and blood vessels.

We explain what can trigger an episode of vestibular migraine, and the lifestyle changes and medication that can help to manage the condition.
