Vestibular Disorders

Due to their disorienting nature, vestibular issues are very distressing for those experiencing them.

Vestibular disorders can cause any combination of the following symptoms:

  • Dizziness

  • Vertigo

  • Impaired balance

  • Blurred vision

  • Nausea

  • Unsteady walking

  • Fatigue

 

People with a vestibular problem may also experience stress, anxiety, reduced concentration and find they are unable to carry out their normal daily activities.

 

Physiotherapists at Neuro-Solutions are trained in Vestibular Rehabilitation, an exercise-based approach to the treatment of vestibular disorders.

Vestibular Rehabilitation is considered to be the most successful approach to relieve symptoms and improve confidence in people with vestibular problems.

 

Our aim with treatment is to:

  • Improve mobility and balance.

  • Reduce sensitivity of the vestibular system.

  • Assist to prevent secondary problems such as visual fixing or holding of the neck and thoracic spine.

  • Provide support and advice on how to manage associated stress and anxiety.
