My mother aged 71 is suffering from cervical spondylosis for 2-3 years. Now she is feeling dizziness after getting up from bed. Is physiotherapy beneficial for dizziness or should I go to orthopaedic Dr. for consultation.

Softly tense the neck muscles. Hold this for 5 seconds. Return your head to its center position. Push your head back with the chin held high, and hold for 5 seconds. Carry out 5 repetitions. 2. Neck tilt tilt your head forward so that the chin touches the chest. Softly tense the neck muscles. Hold this for 5 seconds. Return the head to a neutral position. Carry out 5 repetitions. 3. Neck tilt (side-to-side) lean your head down towards either shoulder, leading with the ear. Softly tense the neck muscles. Hold this for 5 seconds.
