Dizziness and Vertigo Treatment
Balance relies on your inner ear, eyes, brain, and body working together. When this system is disrupted, the brain receives mixed signals about motion and position.
Find Your Balance Again
Feeling unsteady, lightheaded, or as if the room is spinning can make everyday activities feel overwhelming. Simple movements like turning your head, getting out of bed, or walking across a room can trigger sudden episodes of imbalance. At Silver Physio, we help identify the root cause of your dizziness or vertigo and provide targeted physiotherapy so you can regain stability and confidence in your movements.
Why Do Dizziness and Vertigo Occur?
Balance relies on your inner ear, eyes, brain, and body working together. When this system is disrupted, the brain receives mixed signals about motion and position. This imbalance can lead to sensations of spinning, swaying, or faintness. Some people feel disoriented, nauseous, or unable to focus, making simple tasks like driving, exercising, or standing still feel unsafe or impossible.
Common Causes of Dizziness and Vertigo
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV)
Tiny crystals in the inner ear shift out of place, causing sudden spinning sensations during head movements. Physiotherapy helps reposition these crystals and restore normal balance signals.
Meniere’s Disease
Fluid buildup in the inner ear leads to episodes of dizziness, hearing changes, and ringing sensations. Treatment focuses on reducing symptoms and improving balance control.
Vestibular Neuritis
Inflammation of the inner ear affects balance and coordination. Rehabilitation strengthens eye and head control to reduce dizziness caused by sudden movements.
Migraines
Some migraines affect the balance centers of the brain. Targeted therapy reduces sensitivity to motion, light, and visual triggers.
Post Concussion or Stroke Effects
Damage to the neurological or vestibular system can disrupt spatial awareness. Physiotherapy retrains the brain to process movement correctly and restore coordination.
How Physiotherapy Helps Dizziness and Vertigo
Our approach begins with identifying which part of your balance system is not functioning properly. Once we determine the cause, we create a customized treatment plan to help retrain your brain and body to work together smoothly again.
Your treatment may include:
- Vestibular rehabilitation to retrain balance responses
- Gaze stabilization exercises for improved eye and head coordination
- Manual therapy to reduce neck-related dizziness and restore mobility
- Repositioning techniques for BPPV to move displaced inner ear crystals
- Balance and posture training to prevent future episodes and improve stability
Whether your goal is to feel safe walking outdoors, return to work without discomfort, or eliminate fear of sudden dizziness, our treatments ensure you regain control of your movements and live with confidence again.
