Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy Services
in Cloverdale, Surrey, BC

Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy (VRT) is a specialized form of physiotherapy prescribed to treat and improve the symptoms caused by vestibular disorders. It often involves manual head maneuvers and/or a progressive program of exercises designed to reduce vertigo and dizziness, visual issues, and/or imbalance and fall incidence.

How Vestibular Therapy Can Help

After an injury to the vestibular system occurs, the central nervous system can compensate for reduced function of the inner ears. Essentially, the brain copes with the imbalanced signals coming from the vestibular system by learning to rely more heavily on alternative signals coming from other systems in the body to maintain vestibular balance. This can be achieved through various exercise strategies outlined below. When this central (or brain) compensation occurs, the patient’s symptoms can be alleviated and allows them to return to normal function.

Patients typically referred for Vestibular Rehabilitation have been diagnosed with a vestibular condition including:

 

  • Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV)
  • Vestibular Neuritis/Labyrinthitis
  • Unilateral Vestibular Hypofunction (UVH)
  • Vestibular Migraine
  • Persistent Postural Perceptual Dizziness (PPPD)
  • Mal de Debarquement (MdDS)
  • Cervicogenic Dizziness
  • Post Concussion Syndrome (PCS)
  • Meniere’s Disease
  • Neurological conditions (i.e. stroke, traumatic brain injury)
  • Vestibular deconditioning from aging or inactivity
  • and many other vestibular conditions

Benefits of Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy

Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy provides functional gains. Patients often walk steadier and faster, tolerate head and eye movement in busy settings, and return to work, school, and driving sooner. Programs can lessen nausea, fatigue, and motion sensitivity, reduce the need for vestibular medicines, improve sleep and confidence, and teach practical strategies to control flare ups, support safe mobility, and maintain results over time.

Gaze Stabilization Exercises

Clients maintain focus on a stationary or moving target while turning their head side-to-side or up-and-down. This retrains the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR), crucial for clear vision during head movement and reducing dizziness.

Balance Training

Clients perform standing and walking exercises (such as single-leg stance, walking heel-to-toe, or standing on foam) to improve balance, reduce fall risk, and regain confidence in mobility.

Habituation Exercises

This involves repeated, supervised exposure to motions or positions that trigger dizziness, allowing the nervous system to gradually reduce symptom intensity (e.g., using Cawthorne-Cooksey protocols)
