Interesting Facts

Interesting data that I found from various studies:
▪ "Over 90 million Americans, age 17 and older, have experienced a dizziness or balance problem."
▪ "A majority of individuals over 70 years of age report problems of dizziness and imbalance, and balance-related falls account for more than one-half of the accidental deaths in the elderly. . . . Furthermore, in a sample of persons age 65-75, one-third reported that dizziness and imbalance degraded the quality of their lives."
▪ Dizziness is a common symptom affecting about 30% of people over the age of 65.
