Top Vestibular Therapy in Hamilton for Balance & Stability

Welcome to Medhealth Physiotherapy’s Vestibular Therapy in Hamilton, where we specialize in diagnosing and treating vestibular disorders to help you regain balance, stability, and overall quality of life. You will receive effective solutions for vestibular dysfunction through our comprehensive approach, designed to address the unique challenges associated with your specific needs.

What is Vestibular Therapy?

A specialized form of physical therapy called vestibular therapy assesses and treats vestibular disorders, which affect the inner ear and brain’s ability to control balance and spatial orientation. These disorders can lead to symptoms such as dizziness, vertigo, imbalance, and spatial disorientation. Vestibular therapy aims to alleviate these symptoms and improve your overall balance and coordination.

Conditions Treated

Vestibular Therapy in Hamilton can be highly effective for a range of conditions, including:

• Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV): A common cause of vertigo characterized by brief, intense episodes of dizziness triggered by changes in head position.
• Vestibular Neuritis: Inflammation of the vestibular nerve that can cause prolonged dizziness and imbalance.
• Meniere’s Disease: A chronic condition affecting the inner ear, leading to episodes of vertigo, hearing loss, and tinnitus.
• Labyrinthitis: Inflammation of the inner ear structures that can cause dizziness, hearing loss, and balance problems.
• Post-Concussion Syndrome: Dizziness and balance issues that may persist after a head injury or concussion.
• Chronic Dizziness: Persistent dizziness not attributed to a specific condition but affecting daily activities and quality of life.

Our Approach

We personalize and base our vestibular therapy approach on evidence at Medhealth Physiotherapy. Here’s what you can expect from our program:

1. Comprehensive Assessment: We start with a thorough evaluation to understand your symptoms, medical history, and the impact of vestibular dysfunction on your daily life. This assessment helps us develop a tailored treatment plan.
2. Customized Treatment Plan: Based on your assessment, we create a personalized treatment plan that may include a combination of exercises and techniques to improve balance, reduce dizziness, and enhance spatial orientation.
3. Vestibular Rehabilitation Exercises: We use specific exercises to retrain the brain and improve the function of the vestibular system. These may include:
   • Gaze Stabilization Exercises: To improve visual stability during head movements.
   • Balance and Coordination Exercises: To enhance overall stability and reduce the risk of falls.
   • Habituation Exercises: To help the brain adapt to and reduce sensitivity to movements that trigger dizziness.
4. Education and Self-Management: We provide education on managing symptoms and incorporating strategies into your daily routine to maintain balance and prevent future issues.
