ABOUT THE SERVICE

Vestibular Physiotherapy Redwater

Navigating the world with a vestibular disorder can be an unsettling and disorienting experience. Whether you’re living with constant dizziness, dealing with episodes of vertigo, or finding it challenging to maintain your balance, these conditions can significantly disrupt your day-to-day activities. At Redwater Physiotherapy Clinic, we recognize the immense impact these symptoms can have on your overall quality of life. That’s why we have a dedicated Vestibular Physiotherapy program to address these challenges.

Our vestibular rehabilitation services focus on conditions that affect the vestibular system. This complex system, located within the inner ear, plays a major role in maintaining our balance and providing us with a sense of spatial orientation. Various conditions can disrupt its function, from benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) to Meniere’s disease, vestibular neuritis, and labyrinthitis. When this happens, the resulting symptoms can make even the most mundane tasks feel like monumental challenges.

However, it’s important to know that you’re not alone in this struggle. Our team at Redwater Physiotherapy Clinic is here to guide and support you on your journey to recovery. We are dedicated to improving your symptoms, enhancing your balance, and, ultimately, improving your quality of life. With our expertise in Vestibular Physiotherapy, we aim to help you regain a sense of normalcy and stability in your life.

HOW WE HELP!

At Redwater Physiotherapy Clinic, our approach to Vestibular Rehabilitation encompasses the treatment of various conditions, including benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), Meniere’s disease, vestibular neuritis, and labyrinthitis, among others. Vertigo Physiotherapy is typically necessary if you’re experiencing symptoms associated with a vestibular disorder. These symptoms may include:

  • Dizziness or a sensation of unsteadiness
  • Vertigo, characterized by a feeling of spinning or motion when you are still
  • Issues with balance, such as stumbling, frequent falls, or difficulty walking straight
  • Nausea or vomiting, often associated with dizziness or vertigo
  • Problems with concentration or mental fog, often described as difficulty in focusing or maintaining attention
  • Changes in vision, such as blurring or bouncing images, sensitivity to busy environments, or trouble tracking objects
  • Hearing changes or tinnitus, characterized by ringing, buzzing, or hissing sounds in the ear

Our process begins with a thorough assessment carried out by our dedicated vestibular physiotherapists. The assessment includes a detailed discussion of your symptoms and medical history, alongside specific physical and neurological tests. We examine your balance, coordination, gait, and eye movements – all of which can be affected by vestibular disorders. We may also perform positional testing to reproduce and identify the cause of symptoms like dizziness or vertigo and prepare customized dizziness physiotherapy or BPPV physiotherapy, depending on the major symptoms.

WHAT TO EXPECT​

Engaging in Vestibular Physiotherapy at Redwater Physiotherapy Clinic means embarking on a comprehensive, tailored program to enhance your quality of life. Here’s what you can generally expect:

  • Initial Improvement: With consistent therapy sessions, many patients start to see a reduction in the severity of their symptoms within a few weeks. This includes less dizziness and improved balance, leading to increased confidence in moving around and performing daily activities.
  • Personalized Exercises: Your therapist will guide you through a series of exercises designed to retrain your brain to compensate for the changes in the vestibular system. These exercises may initially provoke mild symptoms, but they will lead to significant improvements over time.
  • Long-Term Management: As part of your therapy, we also focus on teaching you strategies to manage your symptoms and exercises you can do at home. This gives you the tools to effectively maintain your improvements and manage potential future flare-ups.

Continued Support: Our team at Redwater Physiotherapy Clinic will provide ongoing support throughout your therapy and even after its completion. We are available to address any concerns, answer questions, and help adapt your home exercise program as your condition improves.

It’s important to note that while most patients see substantial improvements with Vestibular Physiotherapy, individual outcomes might vary depending on the severity of the vestibular disorder and the patient’s overall health.
