I don't know of any exercises to treat it.  When I have it I can't even think about moving, much less exercise.  I use Antivert (meclizine) to fight it.  It's the same as Dramamine or Bonine (OTC)

You need to see a good physical therapist (like me) who can prescribe the RIGHT kind of exercises that you need for both your problems following an evaluation where he performs strength, range of motion and other tests on you to determine which exercises will help you.  The wrong exercises will only make your problems worse.

It depends on what you are looking for. Cardio - walking, running aerobic tapes.  Strength - bodyweight exercises such as push ups, lunges, chair dips can help.  Flexibility - yoga/pilates tapes are great.

Swim, swim, swim. Practice your rescue strokes (side stroke, elementary back, heads-up free & heads-up breast stroke) as well as your regular swim strokes. Practice treading water without using your hands and practice submerging underwater. Running on the sand is great. If you weight train, cut it out until you're done with your certification. Good luck.

There's isn't a total cure, there are ways to alleviate the symptoms of Meniere's disease (vertigo, tinnitus, and temporary loss of hearing).  You can have various surgeries done to alleviate these symptoms.  Or there are certain medications that can be taken to help alleviate these symptoms.  In either case, you should discuss your options with your doctor, and together figure out your best course of action.

Try doing squats, they work great.\n\nAlso ankle raises. Just get up on your toes up and down, repeat over and over. Best thing about that is you can do it anywhere. While you brush your teeth, in the shower etc. \n\nJump up and touch the backboard up and down over and over see how many times you can do it in a row.  Helps with rebounding.

Monitor weight, don't smoke.  Swimming is a great exercise to improve the cardiovascular system.  Take medication if you have asthma -- stay away from attack-triggers.

Simple exercises to do before traveling to Ski Country USA....\n\nHold on to a chair, table, wall with one hand for balance. Stand on one leg with your knee bent approximately 30 degrees (1/3), a bit more than so you can't see your toes under your forward bent knee.\n\nHold this position without moving for approximately 15-30 seconds at first. Gradually increase the time 5-15 seconds every few days, until you can hold the position for 2 minutes. Repeat this exercise at least 3 times per day on each leg.\n\nBenefits:\nYou are strengthening your quadriceps muscle group- one of the most active muscles used in skiing and snowboarding. The one that burns sometimes halfway down a long run down the mountain, and/or halfway through a lesson on our revolving carpet.\n\nYou are establishing good muscle memory by reinforcing a forward flexed position, similar to the one in skiing & snowboarding.\n\nYou will also increase your skill of balance, as balance, like all skills, will improve with practice. A lot of the time in skiing & snowboarding we balance most of our weight on one foot or the other. This simple exercise will help improve your skill at balancing on one foot, which should help improve your balance while in motion on skis & snowboards.\n\nNow that you have great balance and muscle strength, when you get to the Ski area (which is NOT in Baton Rouge)... you'll be physically fit for the challenge.

Vertigo, sometimes called a headrush, is a major symptom of a balance disorder. It is the sensation of spinning while the body is stationary with respect to the earth or surroundings. With the eyes shut, there will be a sensation that the body is in movement, called subjective vertigo; if the eyes are open, the surroundings will appear to move past the field of vision, called objective vertigo.\n\nThe effects may be slight. It may cause nausea or, if severe, may give rise to difficulty with standing and walking. Vertigo is usually associated with a problem in the inner ear balance mechanisms (vestibular system), in the brain, or with the nerve connections between these two organs.\n\nThe 2 types of vertigo are: peripheral vertigo and central vertigo.

You can't do it all at once or you'll have vertigo so bad at times you'll feel like you're going to fall down. If you're taking 20mg, break it in half where the line is and cut it down that way and then take one every other day for a few days. Check it with your doctor first though but that's what I did.

lift weights definatly and run alot drink alot of water and do yoga (it works to help strengthen ur balance and core muscles) practice balancing on a straight line (or beam even tho u don't use the beam) by staring or closing ur eyes and lift on leg up in coupe then to the side straight out and hold it, do handstands and pop off of ur shoulders to help in vault and do chair dips to tone ur muscles to v-ups and straddle-ups push ups and leg lifts witll work too, it also helps to just stand there practicng having tight legs and arms and abs. point toes in hollowbodies and swimmers oh yeah and swimming will help

Well there isn't necessarily a "cure" for vertigo.  Either your symptoms persist or they stop. Medications such as Meclizine (antivert) and Benadryl can ease symptoms, but often leave people drowsy.  \n\nIf your vertigo is caused by benign paroxysmal positional vertigo  an otolaryngologist, (more commonlly called an  ear nose and throat physician) can perform  fatigability.  This type of vertigo is caused by head movement and lasts for about a minute but can leave you with a feeling of imbalance for some time.
