Vestibular therapy addresses dizziness, vertigo, and balance disorders caused by inner ear or neurological issues. At Nova Prime Physical Therapy in Chantilly, VA, our vestibular specialists provide targeted maneuvers, balance retraining, and gaze stabilization to help you regain confidence and prevent falls.
Vestibular therapy is a customized program of exercises and manual techniques designed to reduce dizziness, improve balance, and restore normal head-eye coordination. We treat conditions such as BPPV, vestibular neuritis, and post-concussion dizziness for patients across Northern Virginia.
Your therapist performs a thorough vestibular and balance assessment, then applies repositioning maneuvers (like Epley) when indicated, followed by gaze stabilization, habituation, and balance/proprioception drills. We progress your plan as symptoms improve to restore daily and recreational activities.
Ideal for patients experiencing vertigo, dizziness with head movement, unsteadiness, motion sensitivity, or a history of falls. Also appropriate post-concussion or after inner ear infection/inflammation.
We combine evidence-based repositioning techniques with tailored balance and gaze exercises, with personalized attention. Education on triggers, pacing, and home drills helps you recover faster and safely resume normal life.
These are the issues patients bring to us most often for vestibular therapy.
