Vestibular Rehabilitation
Pain, stiffness, an injury that won’t heal — if it’s keeping you from moving normally, we likely treat it. Here are the conditions we see most across our 8 Texas clinics. No referral needed to start.
What is Vestibular Rehab?
A discipline of physiotherapy that treats dizziness, vertigo, spatial disorientation, and instability. However, before diving into the nitty gritty, here are some quick facts: we have three systems of balance: vestibular, ocular, and proprioceptive. These interrelated systems control the body’s equilibrium and help you facilitate movement and spatial orientation.
At the heart is the vestibular system, sitting in the inner ear adjacent to the hearing organs. It collects information on vibrations, accelerations, decelerations, tilts, and rotations and acts at fiery speed through vestibular nerves to the spine and brain. It’s an intertwined connection.
If something goes awry, the connection is disrupted.
The impact is immediate, noticeable, and chaotic.
But vestibular rehab comes to the rescue.
Health hazards in the absence of Vestibular Rehab
Unfortunately, untreated vestibular disorders can lead to severe complications, including:
Fall— Instability can lead to dangerous falls, resulting in severe traumas like concussions, hip fractures, or bruises.
Mental health conditions
Persistent dizziness can cause anxiety and depression, resulting in avoidant social behaviors or physical activities.
Long-term hearing loss
Infections in the middle ears, which cause vestibular disorders, can lead to long-term hearing loss.
Developmental delays in children
Untreated vestibular disorders also lead to learning delays in children in various dynamics and phases of life.
