Vestibular Rehabilitation

Vestibular rehabilitation is a specific type of physical therapy designed to address the unique problems of patients who suffer from vertigo, dizziness, inner ear disorders or a sense of imbalance.

The physical therapists at Life Therapies have been specifically trained to treat vestibular disorders, as well as balance disorders. Your physical therapist will evaluate you and develop an individualized treatment plan that includes exercises to strengthen posture, gait and components of the balance system. A home exercise program will be designed specifically to the patient's tolerance, physical condition and diagnosis.

Who Can Benefit From Vestibular Rehabilitation?

• People who suffer from vertigo, dizziness or a sense of imbalance
• People who have had a stroke, head injury or concussion, a history of inner ear problems or diabetes
• Elderly people who are more likely to develop a balance problem due to decreased reaction times and movement speeds, medicines that damage the inner ear and other conditions that affect balance
