Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy
Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy (VRT) is an exercise-based treatment used to promote central nervous system compensation for inner ear deficits. The exercises focus on retraining the brain to process signals & movements of the body that are sent from the vestibular system in the inner ear. VRT works to improve the body’s equilibrium & proprioception (knowing where your body is in space), while decreasing dizziness, vertigo, & other balance-related issues. VRT can benefit patients who suffer from BPPV & other unresolved inner ear disorders, whether being a short or long-term issue.
