BALANCE, DIZZINESS, AND VERTIGO

Balance, Dizziness, and Vertigo2023-02-03T07:06:51-05:00

Are you one of thousands of people who suffer from a debilitating feeling of dizziness, vertigo, loss of balance, or fear of falling that is affecting your quality of life? If so, you may have a vestibular disorder or a compromised balance system. Balance problems can strike anyone, although they’re especially common among the elderly. In most cases, they are related to inner ear issues, head injuries, infections, muscle or joint weakness, certain medications, or simply the process of aging.

HOW THE PROGRAM WORKS

Balance, and ultimately movement, can be affected by many body systems, including the muscular, skeletal, visual, and central nervous systems. Physical therapists figure out which systems are contributing to the issues, and then resolve symptoms through customized exercises, balance therapies, and more.
