The brain receives information from the eyes, the inner ear, receptors in the skin, muscles, and joints about the body’s position in space. That is, if the body is still, if it moves, or where it turns, among others.

When there are sudden movements, rapid changes of direction, swaying or acceleration, and deceleration, the brain becomes confused with the information received, and this causes loss of balance, vertigo, and lightheadedness.
