Comprehensive Care for Vestibular Issues

Dizziness, imbalance, and vertigo can significantly disrupt your daily life, making even simple tasks a challenge. At Pelvic Prime, we specialize in addressing vestibular issues with tailored treatments to help you regain stability and confidence. Our comprehensive approach focuses on identifying the root cause of your symptoms and providing effective solutions to improve your quality of life.

Common Vestibular Conditions We Treat

Vestibular disorders affect the inner ear and brain, causing issues with balance and spatial orientation. Research shows that targeted physical therapy is highly effective in treating these conditions. Common vestibular issues we address include:

Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV): Episodes of dizziness triggered by specific head movements due to displaced crystals in the inner ear.

Vestibular Neuritis and Labyrinthitis: Inflammation of the inner ear or vestibular nerve causing dizziness, nausea, and balance problems.
Meniere’s Disease: A condition characterized by episodes of vertigo, hearing loss, and tinnitus due to fluid buildup in the inner ear.
Chronic Subjective Dizziness (Persistent Postural-Perceptual Dizziness): Ongoing feelings of unsteadiness or motion, often worsened by complex visual environments.
