Vestibular Physical Therapy at Premier Care

Vestibular Physical Therapy is a specialized form of physical therapy designed to diagnose and treat dizziness, vertigo, balance problems, and other symptoms caused by inner ear (vestibular system) disorders. Our skilled physical therapists use targeted exercises and techniques to retrain your brain to compensate for inner ear deficits, improve balance, reduce dizziness, and help you return to your daily activities with confidence.

At Premier Care Physical Therapy & Rehabilitation, we’re dedicated to helping you find relief and move better, with care that’s both personalized and effective.

Who Can Benefit from Vestibular Physical Therapy?

Vestibular Physical Therapy is highly effective for individuals experiencing symptoms related to vestibular dysfunction. You may benefit if you experience:

• Vertigo (spinning sensation)
• Dizziness or lightheadedness
• Imbalance or unsteadiness, especially when walking
• Gaze instability (difficulty keeping vision clear with head movement)
• Nausea associated with head movements
• Frequent falls or near-falls
• Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV)
• Meniere's disease
• Vestibular neuritis/labyrinthitis
• Post-concussion syndrome with dizziness or balance issues
• Migraine-associated vertigo
• If daily activities like turning your head, walking in crowded places, or getting out of bed trigger your symptoms, vestibular physical therapy can be a key part of your recovery journey.

Why Choose Premier Care for Vestibular Physical Therapy?

At Premier Care Physical Therapy & Rehabilitation, we deliver results-driven, hands-on treatment in a caring and supportive environment. Our team includes Board-Certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialists and Doctors of Physical Therapy, with specialized training in vestibular rehabilitation, bringing expertise and compassion to every session.

We tailor your vestibular physical therapy plan to your specific diagnosis and needs, using proven techniques such as:

• Canalith Repositioning Maneuvers (e.g., Epley maneuver) – Specific head and body movements to treat BPPV by relocating displaced inner ear crystals.
• Gaze Stabilization Exercises – Eye and head movements designed to improve visual clarity during head motion, reducing dizziness and oscillopsia.
• Balance Training – Progressive exercises to challenge and improve your static and dynamic balance, reducing unsteadiness and fall risk.
• Habituation Exercises – Repeated exposure to movements or visual stimuli that provoke dizziness, to help your brain get used to and eventually ignore the sensation.
• Gait Training – Exercises to improve walking stability and confidence, especially in challenging environments.
• Oculomotor Exercises – Exercises to improve eye movement control, which can be linked to dizziness.
• Sensory Re-integration – Training your body to better interpret and utilize visual, somatosensory (touch/feel), and vestibular information for balance.

Our goal is to help you reduce dizziness, improve your balance, and regain your confidence, so you can move freely, feel better, and return to the activities you love—safely and quickly.
