Ballet dancers who perform pirouettes could hold the secret to treating chronic dizziness , scientists have claimed.
Researchers found differences in the brain structure of ballet dancers which is thought to help them perform the technical spin without feeling dizzy.
The findings suggest dancers can suppress signals in their body which cause dizziness through years of training, according to experts at Imperial College London.
Scientists at the university hope the research could help to improve treatment for patients with chronic dizziness, which affects about one in four people at some time in their lives.
