Vestibular Rehabilitation Edmonton

What is Vestibular Rehabilitation?

Vestibular therapy/rehabilitation is a specialized physiotherapy treatment program that involves an appropriate exercise-based approach to retrain balance.

• Position or movements that cause dizziness.
• Balance deficits which may interfere with your ability to perform daily activities such as dressing, bathing, walking, driving or shopping.
• Visual function as it relates to eye-head co-ordination required for reading, driving or walking.

Your Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy program includes:

• Exercises to help you stop or reduce symptoms of dizziness.
• Advanced balance and gait retraining.
• Compensatory techniques you can use to decrease symptoms of  dizziness and imbalance while performing daily activities.
• Specific vestibular exercises.
• Supervised therapy sessions to monitor progress and continually challenge the vestibular, visual and balance systems.
• Repositioning maneuver for B.P.P.V (Benign Paroxysmal positional Vertigo) which is a condition where crystals are caught in inner ear.
