What Is Vertigo?
Vertigo is a symptom characterized by the false sensation of spinning or movement. It is commonly associated with dysfunction in the vestibular system (inner ear and brain pathways responsible for balance). Patients may experience:

  • Spinning or tilting sensations
  • Imbalance or unsteadiness
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Visual disturbances
  • Difficulty with walking or head movements
    These symptoms can significantly impact daily activities and quality of life if leftuntreated.

Our Clinical Approach
At New Light Physiotherapy, we take a comprehensive and patient-centered
approach to vertigo care. Our physiotherapists are trained to assess and treat a wide
range of vestibular conditions using clinically proven techniques.

Detailed Assessment
Your initial visit includes a thorough evaluation to determine the underlying cause of
vertigo. This may involve:

  • Review of symptom history and triggers
  • Positional testing (e.g., Dix-Hallpike test)
  • Eye movement (oculomotor) assessment
  • Balance and gait analysis
  • Cervical spine screening

Accurate diagnosis is essential to ensure effective treatment.

Conditions We Treat

Our team commonly treats:

  • Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV)
  • Vestibular neuritis and labyrinthitis
  • Ménière’s disease
  • Persistent Postural-Perceptual Dizziness (PPPD)
  • Post-concussion dizziness and imbalance

We also support patients with general balance issues, which may arise from injury, aging, or neurological conditions. (Lumino Health)

Treatment Options

Treatment is tailored to your specific diagnosis and may include:

Canalith Repositioning Maneuvers

For BPPV, techniques such as the Epley maneuver are used to reposition displaced particles in the inner ear, often providing rapid symptom relief.

Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy (VRT)

A customized exercise program designed to retrain the brain and improve balance, including:

  • Gaze stabilization exercises
  • Habituation exercises
  • Balance and coordination training

Manual Therapy and Cervical Treatment

If symptoms are related to neck dysfunction, hands-on therapy and targeted exercises may be incorporated.

Education and Home Exercise Programs

We empower patients with the knowledge and tools needed to manage symptoms and support long-term recovery.
