Vestibular Rehabilitation

The vestibular system is involved in relaying information about head movements and position to the brain which then processes this information along with signals from the rest of your body.

The vestibular system is very sensitive and when things go wrong you may experience symptoms such as:

• Dizziness – light headedness, spaced out feeling
• Vertigo – a sense of movement when there isn’t any reason for it, eg spinning or feeling as thought you are on a boat
• Unsteadiness, reduced balance
• Nausea
• Fatigue
• Brain fog

At Fusion we can help to treat vestibular conditions affecting the peripheral vestibular system (the inner ear) which may include:

• Benign Paroxysmal Positional vertigo (BPPV)
• Unilateral or bilateral vestibular dysfunction- due to damage to one or both ears following a virus.

For anything that may not fit into these categories we can assess and determine an appropriate referral pathway. 

You may self-refer or be referred from your GP, neurologist, ENT specialists, other physiotherapists or any allied or community health professional.
