Vertigo and Balance Problems
Understanding the Vestibular System
The vestibular system, located in the inner ear, works with the brain to maintain balance, movement coordination, and spatial awareness. When this system isn’t functioning properly, you may experience:
-
Dizziness or light-headedness
-
Nausea
-
Unsteadiness or clumsiness
-
Difficulty walking or changing positions
-
Vertigo – a spinning sensation as though the room is moving around you
These symptoms can be distressing, increase the risk of falls, and make everyday activities challenging.
How Physiotherapy Helps
At Pro Perform Physiotherapy in Woodvale, we specialise in vestibular rehabilitation to address conditions causing vertigo and balance problems. Physiotherapy can help by:
-
Identifying movement triggers that cause dizziness or spinning sensations
-
Performing targeted techniques to restore vestibular function
-
Improving balance, stability, and coordination through specific exercises
-
