Damage to the inner ear from infections, inflammation, or crystal displacement can disrupt balance and cause vertigo.

Recovery is a gradual process that varies for each person. Several factors influence your progress:
Regular practice of prescribed exercises helps your brain adapt more effectively.
Sleep, stress levels, and overall health can impact your recovery journey.
A supportive home and safety precautions can make a big difference in your recovery.
Vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT) retrains the brain and body to compensate for dysfunction:
We begin with a detailed evaluation to identify your vestibular disorder, triggers, and functional limits. Balance, coordination, and eye movements are tested to pinpoint key issues. This guides a focused and personalized therapy approach from the start.
Your therapy is tailored to your condition using targeted techniques like repositioning, habituation, and balance training. Each method is chosen to reduce symptoms and improve stability—helping you regain control and confidence in movement.
We monitor your recovery through symptom relief, balance gains, and daily function. As you improve, we adjust your therapy to keep progress steady. Regular feedback helps ensure the plan stays effective and personalized.
At Theramedic, we understand that every injury is unique. Our approach includes:
We treat the root, not just the symptoms—to restore movement, prevent setbacks, and build resilience.
