What Does a Vestibular Physiotherapist Do?
A vestibular physiotherapist is a specialized medical professional who works with individuals to diagnose and treat balance disorders and vestibular conditions. Through the use of specialized assessments, exercises, activities, and manual therapy techniques, these professionals help patients improve their balance, mobility, and overall quality of life.
They are also trained to provide advice about lifestyle changes that can reduce the risk of falls or other accidents. Our Vestibular therapists in North York can also provide information about how to manage certain medical conditions that can cause loss of balance issues.
