Dizziness
​The Vestibular Disorder Association (VEDA) is an American non- profit organisation. One of the most complete websites of all problems related to dizziness, vertigo and balance. Lots of patient information on many different diagnosis in the form of articles and videos.
The Bárány Society is the premier international interdisciplinary organization for vestibular research and neuro-otology. While its primary focus is facilitating collaboration between scientists and clinicians, it is globally recognized for establishing the International Classification of Vestibular Disorders (ICVD).
These gold-standard diagnostic criteria define how vestibular diseases are identified and treated worldwide. For patients and professionals alike, it serves as the ultimate authority on the formal definitions of balance disorders.
The Ménière's Society is the UK’s leading charity for anyone affected by dizziness and balance problems. They provide high-quality, evidence-based information on a wide range of vestibular conditions, alongside a dedicated helpline and a national network of peer support groups. It is an essential resource for patient advocacy and practical coping strategies within the UK healthcare system.
Balance & Dizziness Canada is a leading non-profit dedicated to supporting those with vestibular and balance disorders. As a comprehensive resource hub, the society provides evidence-based information, patient advocacy, and a national directory of specialized practitioners. Reflecting its commitment to accessibility across the country, the organization offers its essential resources and support in both English and French.
The 'Association Suisse du Déficit Vestibulaire Bilatéral (ASDVB) is the primary Swiss association for individuals suffering from bilateral vestibular loss. Their site offers peer support, medical explanations, and a community forum.
The 'Société Française de Kinésithérapie Vestibulaire' (SFKV) is the French society of vestibular physiotherapists. Here you can find a handful of brochures with information on diverse vestibular pathologies. Only in French language. For English speakers I would recommend reading the VEDA website.
Tinnitus
​
BTA is an independent charity supporting thousands of people in the UK with tinnitus. A very informative website with many handouts of everything tinnitus related.
