Vestibular

Dizziness can make your world feel smaller. Maybe you have stopped turning your head. You avoid certain aisles at the grocery store because the lighting triggers that spinning feeling. If any of this feels familiar you are not alone. You do not have to live with it.

At Arka Physiotherapy, the therapy program in Surrey is focused on one goal: helping you feel steady on your feet again. Whether vertigo, dizziness or balance problems disturb your routine we work with you to discover what is really happening and to design a vestibular therapy plan around that.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can benefit from vestibular therapy?

People who feel dizzy and experience vertigo and have trouble standing still or feel shaky when moving may find therapy very useful. Those who have conditions such as neuritis, Meniere’s disease or other inner ear problems often benefit from therapy. Vestibular therapy is also helpful, for people who are healing after a concussion or other brain injury.

A typical vestibular therapy session starts with a check of balance how well you can move together and what makes you dizzy. The therapist may give you exercises that help you balance better keep your eyes steady and get used to moving. The therapist also teaches you ways to deal with symptoms.

The length of therapy depends on how severe your symptomsre how you respond to treatment. Many people have therapy once or twice each week for a weeks or a few months until they see progress. 

Vestibular therapy exercises can include eye movement drills, balance training, movements that help you get used to motion and special positions. The exercises are chosen to match each person’s symptoms and goals so vestibular therapy improves how the inner ear works. 

Most people can keep doing their activities while they have therapy. However you might need to change some movements or skip activities that make your symptoms worse. Your therapist will show you how to stay safe while doing tasks during therapy.
