VRT is a specialized form of physical therapy designed to address balance issues related to inner ear disorders. VRT involves exercises and activities that help retrain the brain to process information more effectively, reducing dizziness, vertigo, and other symptoms.

Weak or imbalanced muscles can contribute to balance problems. We’ll prescribe targeted exercises to strengthen key muscle groups and improve overall stability.

Gait training focuses on improving walking patterns and minimizing the risk of falls. If necessary, we might recommend using assistive devices, such as canes or walkers, to enhance stability during the retraining process.

Physical therapists incorporate balance exercises, such as single-leg stands, tandem walking, or balance board activities, to improve an individual’s ability to maintain stability during daily activities.

Finally, we’ll provide you with detailed information and strategies for managing your balance disorder outside our clinic, such as creating a safe home environment, correctly using assistive devices, and performing prescribed exercises consistently.
