Why Greater Vancouver Turns to Absolute PhysioCare in Burnaby BC to Treat Symptoms of Vertigo

 


Full Service Physiotherapy Treatments for Vertigo

Physical therapists treat inner ear vertigo through vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT). VRT features exercises and movements that reposition the small, calcium carbonate crystals found in the inner ear’s utricle and saccule, which are part of the vestibular system. When restored for optimal functioning, they will help your brain and body sense linear acceleration and gravity and subsequently support balance and coordination. When it comes to brain vertigo, medical interventions such as surgery and prescription of medications may be required. That being said, physiotherapist prescribed VRT can still supplement efforts by focusing on retraining the brain to compensate for vestibular dysfunction while improving balance and reducing dizziness through exercises like habituation, substitution, and balance retraining. Meanwhile, the above mentioned cervical vertigo (or cervicogenic dizziness) which is often accompanied by neck pain can directly be addressed by a chiropractor to correct problems in the neck and cervical spine. It’s also important to note that other physiotherapy treatments may be effective in addressing symptoms of vertigo, incLuding TCM acupuncture.
