Vestibular rehabilitation is widely considered among medical experts to be the most effective and cost-efficient way to treat vestibular disorders. Vestibular disorders are medical conditions concerning the patient’s inner ear and balance. Across the nation, experiencing dizziness is the most prominent complaint of people over 70 years of age. Nearly 85 percent of vertigo is related to the vestibular system.
If you have experienced any of the following, you may be an ideal candidate for vestibular rehabilitation:
People that have vestibular disorders frequently have problems with dizziness, loss of balance, vertigo, and visual disturbances. Several other common issues include vomiting, fatigue, nausea, and reduced ability to concentrate. These symptoms associated with vestibular disorders can decrease a person’s quality of life and negatively affect all aspects of their day-to-day life. Symptoms can lead to a sedentary lifestyle and contribute to emotional issues like depression and anxiety.
If you have a vestibular disorder, our medical experts will diagnose you and prescribe an appropriate and efficient treatment plan. Vestibular rehabilitation is intended to diminish or completely eliminate vertigo and dizziness, strengthen weakened muscles, and improve your visual abilities. Our therapists have extensive experience with handling vestibular disorders and treating them effectively.
