if this is like a nausea headache - thats what I have been calling it - try icing your neck. My vestibular therapist suggested this to me and it works

YES! I've actually been applying heat and/ or massaging the crap out of it and that seems to (at least) progress the situation. It doesn't solve the issue, but makes it more tolerable.

To me, it seems the contact or physical stimulation helps the most...it doesn't matter what type of contact is made (ice, heat, massage, etc).

Any explanation from your vestibular therapist as to why this helps?

Heat tends to feel better but icing reduces inflammation. Inflammation is the more common issue.
