Vertigo Treatment

Vestibular rehab is a specialised type of physiotherapy that retrains the processes between the inner ear and the brain. This type of physiotherapy is needed if you are suffering from certain types of vertigo. We also do different manoeuvres for other types of vertigo if it is necessary. 

Vertigo and dizziness can have a very detrimental effect on a person’s life, and it can most often be treated with physiotherapy. Your initial physiotherapy assessment will be 1 hour long to diagnose the type of vertigo you have and devise a treatment plan.  Depending on the type of vertigo you have this will determine your treatment plan. 

Types of vertigo treated:

• BPPV 

• Unilateral vestibular hypofunction 

• Labyrinthitis 

• Neuritis 

• Meniere’s (in certain circumstances) 

• Certain central lesions (if stable)
