Are you struggling with dizziness, vertigo, or balance issues that are affecting your daily life?
Whether your symptoms are the result of a concussion or from a vestibular disorder, here at Elevation Physiotherapy, we have Physiotherapists with Advanced Vestibular and Concussion certifications who can help. Early diagnosis and management is important for successful outcomes. A personalized assessment is vital due to the unique presentations and nature of these conditions.
Symptoms related to vestibular problems include vertigo (a spinning sensation), lightheadedness, imbalance, nausea, visual difficulties, headaches and disorientation. Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo is a common vestibular disorder that can be quickly treated with the Repositioning Maneuvers. Other more challenging conditions can also be treated and managed with very specific vestibular, visual and balance exercises to improve your balance and coordination, reduce vertigo episodes, and alleviate associated symptoms. By tailoring treatment plans to address these symptoms, we can significantly improve an individual’s overall vestibular function and quality of life.
If you are experiencing dizziness or unsteadiness, please do not drive to your appointments. Arrive and leave with a designated driver as some treatments can produce a short term increase in your symptoms.
