What Is Vestibular Therapy?

Vestibular therapy is a specialized form of physiotherapy focused on the inner ear, brain, and sensory systems that control balance, eye movement, and spatial awareness. When these systems become disrupted, it can lead to dizziness, vertigo, nausea, unsteadiness, blurred vision, or difficulty walking.

Vestibular rehabilitation retrains the brain and balance systems to work together again. Treatment may include specific head and eye exercises, balance retraining, positional maneuvers, and techniques that reduce dizziness and improve coordination. It is safe, structured, and highly effective for many balance-related conditions.


How Vestibular Therapy Helps

Your physiotherapist performs a detailed assessment to determine what is driving your dizziness. Treatment is gentle, movement-based, and tailored to your level of comfort.

Many patients experience:

  • Reduced dizziness, vertigo, or spinning sensations
  • Improved balance and stability
  • Better eye movement control and coordination
  • Enhanced mobility in daily activities
  • Reduced motion sensitivity
  • Increased confidence walking, turning, or navigating busy environments
  • Improved overall quality of life

Vestibular therapy is considered one of the most effective treatments for dizziness and BPPV, with significant improvements often seen in early sessions.


What to Expect During Your Appointment

Your physiotherapist begins with a vestibular and neurological assessment, which may include:

• Eye tracking and gaze stability testing
• Positional tests for BPPV
• Balance and coordination evaluation
• Motion sensitivity assessment
• Neck and posture evaluation

Treatment may include repositioning maneuvers (such as the Epley or Gufoni maneuver), gaze-stability exercises, balance retraining, targeted movement drills, soft-tissue work for neck tension, and strategies to help manage symptoms at home.

You’ll receive a personalized recovery plan that fits your lifestyle, work demands, and activity level.


Integrated, Team-Based Care

Vestibular issues often involve multiple systems — the neck, vision, posture, and nervous system. For more complete recovery, your physiotherapist may collaborate with:

• Chiropractors
• Registered Massage Therapists
• Kinesiologists
• Acupuncturists
• Clinical Pilates practitioners

This integrated approach ensures you receive the most effective, well-rounded care.
