3 Physiotherapists you can see for Vertigo and Dizziness in Brisbane and the Gold Coast

Living with vertigo, dizziness, or balance issues can be unsettling, especially if you haven’t experienced this before. There are many reasons that you may be experiencing these symptoms, but you don’t have to live with them – treatment can help.

At Hiya Health, we offer vestibular physiotherapy services in a number of our clinics, which can help treat and manage your symptoms so you can move more confidently again.

What is Vestibular Physiotherapy and how does it work?

Vestibular physiotherapy (or vestibular rehabilitation) is a form of physiotherapy tailored for people who are experiencing vestibular dysfunction — in other words, when your balance system (including the inner ear) isn’t working as it should. Vestibular physio aims to treat the root causes by retraining your brain and body to more accurately interpret sensory signals.

Common symptoms that vestibular physio can help with include:

• Vertigo (spinning sensations)
• Dizziness and lightheadedness
• Motion sensitivity
• Balance problems or unsteadiness

What Happens During a Vestibular Physio Appointment?

Your initial session includes a comprehensive assessment of your symptoms, eye movement, balance, neurological function, and response to positional changes. Based on your results, we may do some treatment in your initial appointment, or a subsequent appointment. Your treatment may include:

• Manual techniques
• Repositioning manoeuvres
• Visual-vestibular exercises
• Balance training
• Education and a home exercise program

We’ll work with you to create a personalised plan to manage your symptoms, and work through this together.
