Vertigo, dizziness and loss of balance can be disabling, scary and can have a huge impact on a person's daily life. Working with a trained vestibular therapist who understands how these symptoms impact you can help get you back to your normal life quicker.
There are lots of causes for symptoms of dizziness, vertigo and feeling off balance. Some conditions that cause these vestibular symptoms are Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), Labyrinthitis or Vestibular Neuritis, Meniere’s disease, Migraine- related vestibular dysfunction, concussion/brain injuries, Multiple sclerosis, and cerebellar conditions to name a few. It can also be due to aging and loss of function that can cause a balance disruption.
Our treatment of these conditions starts with a thorough assessment of the vestibular, visual, sensory and motor systems to find the underlying causes and impact of these symptoms on your daily life. Treatment is then tailored towards these findings with the goal to get you back to your best as quickly as possible.
