What is Vestibular Physiotherapy Vestibular physiotherapy is a specialized branch of physiotherapy focused on diagnosing and treating conditions affecting the vestibular system, a critical part of the inner ear responsible for maintaining balance and spatial orientation. Disorders of this system can lead to dizziness, vertigo, imbalance, and impaired coordination, significantly impacting daily life. Through targeted exercises, manual therapy, and cutting-edge rehabilitation techniques, vestibular physiotherapy aims to recalibrate the brain's response to balance challenges, reducing symptoms and enhancing overall stability. www.hillcrestphysio.com
Conditions Treated with Vestibular Physiotherapy Vestibular physiotherapy effectively addresses a wide range of balance-related conditions, including but not limited to: 1. Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) BPPV is one of the most common causes of vertigo, triggered by displaced calcium crystals within the inner ear. Patients experience brief episodes of dizziness with specific head movements. Hillcrest’s physiotherapists employ repositioning maneuvers such as the Epley maneuver to realign these crystals, providing immediate relief. 2. Vestibular Neuritis and Labyrinthitis These conditions result from inflammation of the vestibular nerve or inner ear, causing vertigo, nausea, and balance disturbances. Our treatment protocols include vestibular exercises designed to promote neural compensation and recovery. 3. Meniere’s Disease Characterized by recurring vertigo episodes, hearing loss, tinnitus, and a feeling of fullness in the ear, Meniere’s Disease can be debilitating. Vestibular therapy at Hillcrest helps manage symptoms, improve balance, and enhance overall quality of life. 4. Post-Concussion Syndrome Individuals recovering from a concussion often experience dizziness, headaches, and difficulty concentrating. Our tailored vestibular rehabilitation plans address these symptoms, accelerating recovery. 5. Chronic Dizziness and Motion Sensitivity Persistent dizziness and hypersensitivity to movement can severely limit daily activities. At Hillcrest, we utilize progressive desensitization exercises to rebuild tolerance and restore function. www.hillcrestphysio.com
