Vestibular or Vertigo Rehab

The most common form of Vertigo is Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, or BPPV. Acute episodes can come out of nowhere and debilitate a person. The cause of BPPV generally involve crystals in the inner ear becoming lodged in the inner ear canal. The staff at Sports and Rehab are able to treat vertigo by performing maneuvers which adjust crystals in the inner ear to return a patient to their normal function by decreasing the dizziness, nausea he/she may experience.  Other causes of vertigo include Inner ear infections or disorders, migraines, tumors, inner ear trauma or injury, and stroke. Symptoms associated with vertigo include nausea, vomiting, sweating, and abnormal eye movement. The staff at Sports and Rehab are trained to diagnose a disorder of the vestibular system and treat the disorder  by either performing maneuvers or utilizing Visual tracking exercises, other vertigo exercises, and balance strategies are given to a patient to strengthen the vestibular system to avoid the episodes from returning.

In most cases the problem is resolved in only 2-3 office visits.
