Vestibular Rehabilitation
Vestibular rehabilitation is a specialized form of therapy that incorporates exercises and repositioning techniques to reduce vertigo, dizziness, gaze instability, imbalance and falls.
What is vestibular rehabilitation?
Vestibular rehabilitation focuses on alleviating symptoms of vestibular disorders. It incorporates exercises and repositioning techniques designed to reduce vertigo, dizziness, gaze instability and imbalance and falls. Canalith repositioning maneuvers are used to treat benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), which accounts for 90% of all disability caused by dizziness.
What are the benefits?
Vestibular rehabilitation can often provide a permanent solution to dizziness and imbalance. Expected outcomes from vestibular rehabilitation can include decreased risk of fall, a decrease in dizziness symptoms, improved balance, improved gaze stability, increased body strength, a return to prior level of movement and function, and an increase in confidence in ability to maintain balance.
"I have made huge progress since going to physical therapy. I was using a cane and unable to even sit on the floor or get up easily. I am no longer using the cane and my range of motion and strength has greatly improved. Everyone at Physical Therapy of the Rockies is highly professional and great to work with. They pushed me when I needed to be pushed. I highly recommend using Physical Therapy of the Rockies if physical therapy is needed I will use them again if the need ever arises.”
