Vestibular physiotherapy may help individuals who experience dizziness, balance difficulties, or unsteadiness by addressing how the body processes signals from the inner ear and nervous system. These symptoms can arise from a variety of causes, such as inner ear conditions, head injuries, or neurological issues. The goal of vestibular physiotherapy is to support improved balance, reduce dizziness, and enhance overall movement confidence.

The process often begins with an assessment that looks at how a person’s eyes, head, and body respond to different positions and movements. This helps identify how the vestibular system is functioning and which areas may benefit from targeted care.

Treatment may include exercises designed to improve gaze stability, reduce sensitivity to motion, and enhance balance control. In some cases, specific maneuvers may be used to help reposition tiny crystals in the inner ear that can cause dizziness. Therapy is typically gradual and tailored to each individual’s tolerance, helping the nervous system adapt and compensate over time.

Education on strategies to manage symptoms during daily activities is often part of the care plan. This may include guidance on safe movement, posture, and ways to reduce the impact of dizziness on everyday life.
