Vestibular Rehabilitation

Vestibular rehabilitation involves specific exercises that help you manage dizziness and balance issues. These exercises involve training your eyes, head movements, and balance system to better process information. Some conditions may benefit from a series of head movements guided by a trained therapist.

Some of the benefits of vestibular rehabilitation include decreasing sensations of the room spinning, addressing balance and unsteadiness, and improving the ability to focus when reading.

During an initial assessment, it is common for your symptoms to be increased temporarily. We recommend you make plans to ensure someone can transport you home safely.

Common conditions treated with vestibular rehabilitation:

· Vertigo or BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo)

· Motion sensitivity

· Dizziness after a concussion / post-concussion syndrome

· Dizziness and neck issues after a car accident

· Other vestibular conditions such as labyrinthitis

There are many reasons for dizziness; some are treatable with vestibular rehabilitation and others require medical treatment. It can be helpful to see a primary care physician first to see if vestibular rehabilitation is appropriate for you.
