Balance and Vestibular Therapy Program
Dizziness and loss of balance are among the most common problems bringing patients to their doctor’s office. In fact, 40% of adults experience dizziness or imbalance at some point in their life. Left untreated, the results can be debilitating. As people get older, the onset of dizziness and falls from balance problems increases.
These falls can lead to injury, hospitalization, surgery and even permanent disability. Dizziness and imbalance should not be accepted as inevitable effects of the aging process.
Reddy-Care Physical Therapy offers a comprehensive vestibular rehabilitation and vestibular therapy program.
Therapy goals include improved balance control, reduced risk of falls and improved daily function and for orthopaedic patients, improved stabilization of affected joints. Instant visual feedback allows patients to track their performance and make adjustments as they go.
