What Is Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy?

Vestibular rehabilitation is an exercise-based therapy designed to alleviate dizziness and balance issues caused by inner ear or brain disorders. Your vestibular system plays a crucial role in maintaining your balance and spatial orientation. When it becomes disrupted due to illness, injury, or aging, you may experience symptoms such as:

  • Vertigo (spinning sensation)
  • Dizziness or lightheadedness
  • Unsteadiness or imbalance
  • Frequent falls or fear of falling
  • Nausea or motion sensitivity
  • Blurred vision with movement
  • Difficulty walking in dark or crowded spaces

Vestibular rehab focuses on improving coordination between the eyes, inner ears, and body to help you move safely and confidently again.
