2What is Vestibular Physiotherapy
- Vestibular physiotherapy is a specialized branch
of physiotherapy focused on diagnosing and
treating conditions affecting the vestibular
system, a critical part of the inner ear
responsible for maintaining balance and spatial
orientation. Disorders of this system can lead to
dizziness, vertigo, imbalance, and impaired
coordination, significantly impacting daily life. - Through targeted exercises, manual therapy, and
cutting-edge rehabilitation techniques,
vestibular physiotherapy aims to recalibrate the
brain's response to balance challenges, reducing
symptoms and enhancing overall stability.

3Conditions Treated with Vestibular Physiotherapy
- Vestibular physiotherapy effectively addresses a
wide range of balance-related conditions,
including but not limited to - 1. Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV)
- BPPV is one of the most common causes of vertigo,
triggered by displaced calcium crystals within
the inner ear. Patients experience brief episodes
of dizziness with specific head movements.
Hillcrests physiotherapists employ repositioning
maneuvers such as the Epley maneuver to realign
these crystals, providing immediate relief. - 2. Vestibular Neuritis and Labyrinthitis
- These conditions result from inflammation of the
vestibular nerve or inner ear, causing vertigo,
nausea, and balance disturbances. Our treatment
protocols include vestibular exercises designed
to promote neural compensation and recovery. - 3. Menieres Disease
- Characterized by recurring vertigo episodes,
hearing loss, tinnitus, and a feeling of fullness
in the ear, Menieres Disease can be
debilitating. Vestibular therapy at Hillcrest
helps manage symptoms, improve balance, and
enhance overall quality of life. - 4. Post-Concussion Syndrome
- Individuals recovering from a concussion often
experience dizziness, headaches, and difficulty
concentrating. Our tailored vestibular
rehabilitation plans address these symptoms,
accelerating recovery. - 5. Chronic Dizziness and Motion Sensitivity
- Persistent dizziness and hypersensitivity to
movement can severely limit daily activities. At
Hillcrest, we utilize progressive desensitization
exercises to rebuild tolerance and restore
function.
