How Can Vestibular Physiotherapy Help With Dizziness, Vertigo or Balance?

At Restore Function Physiotherapy, our vestibular physiotherapist is specially trained in advanced assessment techniques to accurately diagnose the cause of dizziness, vertigo and balance disorders. A tailored treatment plan is developed and prescribed targeted exercises designed to reduce your symptoms, improve balance & stability and restore your confidence in everyday activities.

Whether your symptoms stem from benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), vestibular hypofunction or another inner ear condition, vestibular physiotherapy provides an effective, evidence-based approach to recovery.

What is the Vestibular System?

The vestibular system is located in your inner ear and contributes to your balance, head position and spatial awareness. It contains two main components:
Semicircular Canals: There are 3 semicircular canals in your vestibular system which detect rotational movements of your head
Otoliths: These detect acceleration
These components send signals to your brain which help to keep your vision stable during head movements and maintain balance.

Common Vestibular Symptoms Include:

I came to Restore Function after bad advice from a different physio had created a chronic ankle problem. At Restore I finally got the correct help and my ankle quickly healed. Miranda is an amazing physio and with her help I was also able to overcome chronic back pain, which had been largely caused by incorrect advice from the previous different physiotherapist (from a different company). I’ve learned the hard way that the wrong physio can cause huge problems. I have the utmost confidence in all the physios at Restore Function and wouldn’t go anywhere else. I also saw Meredith for pelvic floor help after my hysterectomy and she was excellent. Renee in administration is lovely and very helpful. Restore Function is honestly the best group of physiotherapists I have ever encountered and I am so grateful I found them. I give them a hundred stars.

Miranda & her team have been fantastic since my ankle surgery 11 weeks ago. From barely being able to wiggle my toes to now back walking & well on the way to a full recovery, I couldn’t be happier. Her advice & experience is second to none. I’m so happy my Surgeon recommended her to me. I would do the same for anyone who has an injury or pain. Thanks again!

Over the past few months I have been going to Restore Function Physiotherapy for an arm injury & Frozen Shoulder, From the moment I spoke to the reception staff on the phone I have received the highest level of care from all staff members.

They have been so incredibly caring, patient, helpful & professional throughout my recovery. The Physio’s are extremely knowledgeable & incredibly well trained, but are also very a, I have made great progress with the Physio’s help. I couldn’t recommend them enough if I tried, Thank you so much to everyone there for their support.

Cannot recommend Restore Function Physio highly enough. Miranda has been treating my gymnast daughter for an injury to her distal radial metaphysis and she has been amazing. Miranda listened to my daughter’s concerns, conducted a thorough examination and explained the injury and what treatment was needed in order for her to make a full recovery and get back into the gym doing what she loves. The appointments never feel rushed and Miranda goes above and beyond in providing her treatment. Their new clinic is beautiful with plenty of onsite car parking and so easy to book appointments online or through their friendly receptionist. Will definitely be going back!

My grieving back problem that plagued me for over 9 months is 95% gone after two sessions with Miranda. Thank you for quickly putting the spring back into my back again with your wealth of knowledge and skills. Your feedback on the prescribed exercises via Physiapp is of great value. Part of my problem was working from home without proper desk and chair. Miranda introduced me to the Bassett Lumbar support that turned any chair into a spine friendly chair that works better than a $300 office chair. It is so good that I just bought the second one for my wife. Thank you Miranda and the team at Restore Function.
