Understanding Vestibular Physiotherapy
Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy (VRT) is a specialized form of therapy intended to alleviate problems caused by vestibular disorders and concussions, including vertigo, dizziness, vision changes, lightheadedness, imbalance and falls.
With a vestibular disorder, there are changes to our vestibular system, resulting in feelings of dizziness and imbalance. VRT works by strengthening the bond between our body, eyes, brain and inner ear in a safe and controlled manner. Depending on your vestibular-related symptoms, therapy may include:
Adaptation | Gaze Stabilization | Habituation | Balance Training | Canalith Repositioning Maneuvers | Gait Training | Lifestyle Strategies
By working with these methods, we can reduce your symptoms, achieve your specific goals and increase your overall quality of life.
At Healing Vertigo, we work with you one to one to create your customized exercise-based program, developed from our clinical assessment together. We use a hybrid model of care, providing both in-person and virtual sessions. Virtual sessions are through a secure service which is HIPPA PIPEDA, and PHIPA compliant, ensuring your data remains private and safe.
