Vestibular Rehabilitation:
Vestibular physiotherapy is a specialized treatment aimed at addressing dizziness, balance issues, and vertigo caused by problems within the inner ear and vestibular system. Our comprehensive assessment includes a series of tests to evaluate the visual and vestibular systems, as well as sensation. We gather detailed information about pain, muscle strength, range of motion in the extremities and spine, coordination, balance, posture, and walking ability.
Based on these findings, we create a customized exercise program designed to reduce symptoms, improve balance, and enhance overall mobility. This therapy is ideal for individuals experiencing dizziness, unsteadiness, or motion sensitivity, helping them regain control and confidence in their movements.
