Mild ear stimulation for dizziness and migraine
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This trial tests if a mild electrical stimulation to the inner ear can reduce dizziness and migraine symptoms. It involves six short sessions over two weeks.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with vestibular migraine (a type of migraine that causes dizziness).
- You have had at least one episode of dizziness or vertigo from migraine in the past month.
- You can stand without help for at least one minute and walk about 25 feet (like across a room) without help.

This study uses a weak electrical current to test how well your inner ear balance system works. It may help people with certain inner ear conditions like vestibular schwannoma or vestibular neuritis.
This study tests whether mild electrical stimulation of the inner ear (vestibular system) can help improve balance and walking. It may be a good fit if you have a condition like vertigo, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, or concussion-related balance issues.
This trial tests if a portable electric stimulation device can help improve balance and reduce dizziness in people recovering from a concussion. If you have had ongoing imbalance for at least 4-6 weeks, this study may help you feel steadier.
This study tests if a gentle, non-invasive nerve stimulation in the ear can help reduce chronic dizziness. It is for people with a specific type of dizziness called PPPD that has lasted at least 3 months.
This trial tests if a mild electrical current applied behind the ear can reduce dizziness and hearing problems in people with Meniere's disease. It may help those who still get vertigo attacks despite taking standard medications.
This study is testing a device that may help reduce motion sickness and feelings of disorientation. Healthy people who do not usually get motion sickness are needed to participate.
