Overview
About Balance Therapy & Vertigo
The vestibular system in the inner ear works with your eyes and body to keep you balanced. When it is disrupted, people may experience spinning sensations, unsteadiness or motion sensitivity.
Vestibular rehabilitation uses assessment and targeted exercises to help reduce symptoms and improve confidence with balance. For certain types of positional vertigo, specific repositioning techniques may also be used.
