    This has been so helpful on my new journey with vestibular migraine. I’m trying to get my migraines under control with preventatives but once I do I’m going to join the vestibular group fit. Looking forward to healing! Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge!

  • Brilliant

    Dr. Madison Oak is one of those rare geniuses in the world of medical complexity and uncertainty. Vestibular disorders are life-altering and frightening and too few providers - even so called experts - know how to successfully treat them AND empower patients to find their energy, joy, and hope again. Dr. Oak (or Dr. Madison as she goes by) is truly that kind of visionary. I’m thrilled that she’s brought her knowledge to yet another medium to spread her message near and far.

  • Looking forward to balance

    After years of suffering in silence with symptoms that I did not know was PPPD. I now know where to go for self education and that lead me to Dr Madison Oak. Her passion is what gives me hope for a future with balance. I’ve learned so much from the podcast and vestibular group fit.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

153. Hormones, Histamine, and Your Vestibular Disorder w/ Dr. Saru Bala
Q: How should someone approach testing vs. symptom tracking?
While blood work matters, you get more actionable data from a detailed symptom history and how it maps to cycle phases; testing should be interpreted in the context of this, not in isolation.
153. Hormones, Histamine, and Your Vestibular Disorder w/ Dr. Saru Bala
Q: What are the big hormonal players for women?
Estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, cortisol, insulin, and thyroid hormones are the main players; they communicate constantly and affect mood, energy, and symptoms across the cycle.
110. Pilates as Exercise for Vestibular Migraine w/ Candy Price
Q: What advice might you give someone feeling afraid to move again?
Breathe and get centered before moving, returning to your breath if you start feeling anxious or unsteady.
105. The Importance of Mindset in Healing w/ Dr. Emily Kostelnik
Q: What are maybe one or two easy things you can do if you're having a flare or a bad day?
Interrupting negative thought loops and focusing on neutral sensations in the body can help manage symptoms.
91. Mold & Dizziness: What You Need to Know
Q: Why is air testing insufficient for mold detection?
Air samples should be taken from wall cavities, as in-room tests may not show hidden mold problems.
