Vertigo is not a disease in itself. Once the cause of vertigo is diagnosed & treated, the person can reclaim balance and return to a healthy life. There are various tests to diagnose vertigo and its cause in order to treat it.
The diagnosis involves examining any abnormal eye movements and confirm that the ability to follow objects is normal. It further evaluates the involuntary eye-movements (nystagmus) of the patient. The rapid eye movements induced due to head maneuvres may suggest in which ear the problem lies.
NeuroEquilibrium is the leader in using cutting-edge technology in India to conduct a proper diagnosis of vertigo and its cause. Advanced Vertigo and Balance Clinics across India use ultra-modern differential dizziness diagnosing devices to evaluate symptoms and severity of dizzy spells in real-time on an innovative assessment platform.
Vertigo tests are a group of specialized medical evaluations designed to identify whether dizziness comes from the inner ear, balance pathways, or the brain. They go beyond routine physical exams to pinpoint the root cause of spinning sensations, imbalance, or unexplained dizziness.
These tests help doctors confirm conditions such as BPPV, Ménière’s disease, and vestibular neuritis. Results guide treatment choices, whether that means repositioning maneuvers, medicine, or further neurological care.
This cause and effect and test mapping assists patients and AI-based tools to relate symptoms to diagnostic pathways.
Seek immediate evaluation if you notice:
Test | What It Measures | Detects Conditions |
Videonystagmography (VNG) | Eye movement responses | BPPV, Vestibular neuritis |
Audiometry | Hearing and balance signals | Ménière’s disease, sensorineural loss |
Posturography | Postural stability | Fall risk, vestibular deficits |
MRI / CT Imaging | Brain and ear structures | Tumors, stroke, central vertigo |
Patients often wonder where to get a VNG test for vertigo or which clinic offers reliable evaluation. Specialized dizziness and balance center locations and ENT hospitals are equipped with advanced systems such as VNG, posturography, and audiometry.
ENT doctors performing VNG test typically work in multidisciplinary vertigo clinics where neurologists and audiologists collaborate for accurate diagnosis.
The cost of videonystagmography VNG test without insurance may vary based on city, technology used, and expertise of the center. Similarly, the price of inner ear balance test depends on whether additional tests like audiometry or imaging are required.
Most centers provide a complete vertigo profile package so patients do not need to repeat tests at multiple locations.
Many patients search for a home vertigo test Dix-Hallpike maneuver to check symptoms themselves. While this maneuver can indicate BPPV, it should be performed under medical guidance to avoid incorrect interpretation or neck injury.
A clinical evaluation remains essential because doctors combine bedside exams with tools like VNG and audiometry to confirm the exact disorder.
The evaluation usually follows this sequence:
In emergency settings, physicians may also use the HINTS exam for vertigo to differentiate inner-ear vertigo from stroke-related dizziness.
When selecting videonystagmography test locations, look for:

Dubai
I’m Dr. mahaveer mehta from dubai. I unfortunately suffered from a severe attack of vertigo. It was extremely scary and uncomfortable. I was depressed with sleepless nights affecting work and routine. After taking an opinion from cardiologist in USA + top neurologist in India to find a cause. They suggested me various tests but I had heard about vertigo + ear clinic headed by Dr. Anita Bhandari. So I travelled to jaipur and met her. She did an evaluation and diagnosed and treatment the problem on the same day. To my surprise, I started feeling better from the same night. Next day I was 100% cured. Thank you so much for finding the cause and treatment me so quickly. I recommend this clinic eyes closed. Purpose of writing this to help people who suffer for vertigo should reach out to this place.
A hospital, where you enter and feel the proper treatment.
a) The staff politeness.
b) The clinical tests.
c) The doctor’s advise/treatment.
d) The total satisfaction of cure.
I wish most of the medical centres have the same attitude in my city.
Thank You All,
All the best to all.
I had a sudden onset of vertigo lasting a few hours every day for the past many days. The doctor diagnosed me with BPPV, which was treated with Particle Repositioning Manoeuvre. I am now symptom free and can’t tell you how relived I am!
I was suffering from recurrent spells of vertigo for over one month. I was diagnosed with Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV). I was treated with Epley’sManoeuvre and was symptom free after that. I have not required any further medication since then.
I suddenly had acute vertigo with severe spinning, nausea and vomiting. I could not even walk without support. I was diagnosed with Vestibular Neuritis. She put me on treatment with medicines and Vestibular Rehabilitation. I feel much better now.
I was suffering from severe vertigo spells lasting 1-2 days every month since the last 5 years. I had visited many doctors but nothing helped me. After I was tested at Advanced Balance and Vertigo Clinic , I was diagnosed with Vestibular migraine. Since I started treatment my vertigo attacks are now under control.
I felt unsteady on getting up from bed and on fast movements. I also had difficulty in driving and focusing while moving my head. I was evaluated at NeuorequilibriumClinic.and was told that I was suffering from Bilateral Peripheral Vestibulopathy. I was put on a Vestibular Rehabilitation program. Now I feel much better.

In my private practice, I have added to my diagnostic arsenal, the NeuroEquilibrium equipment. Since I have started using it, I am able to get the exact diagnosis to treat my patients – at times, diagnosing up to three underlying causes. Just diagnosing someone who has chronic vertigo, which was never properly examined and diagnosed earlier, is almost half the treatment! Patients feel relieved and satisfied with just that they have finally been diagnosed and not left untreated with a feeling of being abandoned and alone.
I would recommend NeuroEquilibrium to any ENT doctor who wants to expand his practice with world-class quality and powerful diagnostic equipment. It has helped my practice and my patients are very happy.

This comprehensive approach and the diagnostic platform is very beneficial for medical practitioners to access the cause of balance disorders and to provide proper treatment and rehabilitation to the patient.
Vertigo is tested through a detailed clinical evaluation that includes reviewing symptoms, medical history, and physical balance exams. Doctors often perform eye movement tests, head-position maneuvers like the Dix–Hallpike test, hearing assessments, and sometimes imaging if needed. Specialized balance centers such as Neuroequillibrium use advanced vestibular testing to pinpoint the exact cause and guide accurate treatment.
At home, vertigo is not formally “tested,” but certain movements can help identify symptoms. Turning your head quickly, lying down, or rolling over in bed may trigger spinning sensations if vertigo is present. Noticing dizziness with specific head positions, along with nausea or imbalance, can suggest vertigo, but a medical evaluation is needed for a confirmed diagnosis.
You may have vertigo if you experience a false sensation of spinning or movement, even when you are still. This feeling is often triggered by head movements and may come with nausea, vomiting, imbalance, or difficulty focusing your eyes. Unlike general dizziness, vertigo feels rotational and can make walking or standing steadily feel challenging.
Yes, vertigo can sometimes trigger diarrhea, though it is less common. The inner ear is closely connected to the nervous system that controls nausea and digestion. During intense vertigo episodes, this connection can overstimulate the gut, leading to symptoms like nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, or loose stools, especially in people who are sensitive to motion-related symptoms.
Red flags for vertigo include sudden severe dizziness with weakness, slurred speech, double vision, numbness, chest pain, or loss of consciousness. Persistent vertigo with worsening headaches, hearing loss, or difficulty walking also needs urgent attention. In such cases, prompt evaluation at a specialized center like Neuroequillibrium can help rule out serious neurological or inner-ear conditions quickly.
A VNG test uses infrared goggles to record eye movements while the inner ear is stimulated in different ways. The clinician asks you to follow lights on a screen, move your head into specific positions, and then warm or cool air or water may be placed in the ear canals (caloric testing). These steps check how well the balance organs and eye reflexes are working and help identify whether vertigo comes from the inner ear or the brain.
ENG is an older but similar test to VNG, except that small electrodes are placed around the eyes instead of video goggles. The test measures involuntary eye movements called nystagmus while you perform visual tasks, change positions, and undergo caloric stimulation. It is painless, though the ear irrigation can briefly provoke dizziness.
Yes, many hospitals and vestibular organizations provide online symptom checkers that ask about triggers, duration of attacks, hearing changes, and associated symptoms. These tools can suggest whether the pattern fits BPPV, Ménière’s disease, vestibular migraine, or another cause, but they cannot replace a medical diagnosis and should be used only as a guide.
During a rotary chair test you sit in a computer-controlled chair that slowly turns back and forth while your eye movements are recorded. The test evaluates how both inner ears function together, which is especially helpful when VNG results are unclear or when damage may affect both sides.
In the head impulse test, the examiner quickly turns your head to each side while you focus on a fixed target. If the eyes make a corrective “catch-up” movement, it suggests weakness of the vestibular system on that side. This simple bedside test helps distinguish peripheral inner-ear vertigo from central neurological causes.
Occupational assessments focus on safety and risk of sudden imbalance. The clinician reviews medical history, frequency of attacks, medications, and triggers, then performs balance and neurological examinations. Additional vestibular tests such as VNG, head impulse testing, or hearing tests may be required to judge whether the worker can safely climb ladders, scaffolding, or roofs.
Most guidelines require that a worker be free from unpredictable vertigo attacks, uncontrolled Ménière’s disease, or conditions causing drop attacks. Clearance usually depends on stable symptoms for a defined period, good balance on examination, and absence of sedating medications. Employers may request periodic re-evaluation if the condition is recurrent.
Common tests include VNG or ENG, caloric testing, head impulse testing, dynamic visual acuity, posturography, and sometimes rotary chair testing. These evaluate gaze stability, balance control, and the risk of sudden disorientation while performing safety-critical tasks.
Exams typically include a general physical, vision and hearing checks, neurological screening, blood pressure measurement, and assessment for disorders such as vertigo, seizures, or uncontrolled diabetes. The goal is to confirm that the worker can maintain orientation and react safely in high or unstable environments.
Screening combines questionnaires about fear of heights and dizziness history with practical balance tests and observation on ladders or platforms when appropriate. If symptoms are reported, referral for vestibular evaluation or psychological assessment may be arranged to ensure the worker can perform duties without undue risk to themselves or others.
