Conditions We Treat
Dizziness, vertigo, and balance problems have many causes — and most of them respond to the right kind of care.
You Don't Need a Diagnosis to Start
Many people arrive here without a clear label for what's wrong. They just know the room sometimes spins, the floor feels unsteady, busy places are overwhelming — and they've often been told their tests are "normal" and sent on their way.
If that's you, you're in the right place. You don't need to know your diagnosis to be seen. Part of what a vestibular specialist does is sort out which problem — or, very often, which combination of problems — is causing your symptoms, and then build a plan around it.
We help with symptoms like:
- Vertigo (spinning) and dizziness or lightheadedness
- Unsteadiness, imbalance, and falls
- Bouncing or blurred vision when you move
- Motion sensitivity — cars, scrolling, busy or crowded spaces
- Dizziness triggered by rolling over, looking up, or bending down
- Persistent dizziness after an illness, injury, or concussion
A Note on Overlap
Vestibular conditions rarely stay in tidy boxes. A concussion can knock loose the inner-ear crystals that cause BPPV. An episode of vestibular neuritis can leave behind persistent, brain-based dizziness (PPPD). Vestibular migraine is regularly mistaken for Ménière's disease. It's common to have more than one thing going on at once — which is exactly why a careful, comprehensive evaluation matters so much.
The Conditions
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV)
The most common cause of vertigo — brief, intense spinning triggered by rolling over, looking up, or bending down. Highly treatable, often resolved in just one or two visits.
Vestibular Neuritis & Labyrinthitis
A sudden, severe bout of vertigo — usually after a virus — that can leave you unsteady, foggy, and exhausted for weeks. Targeted rehab helps your brain recover faster and more fully.
Vestibular Migraine
Recurrent dizzy spells with sensitivity to light, sound, and motion — often without any headache at all. One of the most common and most overlooked causes of dizziness.
Persistent Postural-Perceptual Dizziness (PPPD)
Constant dizziness or a rocking, swaying feeling that's worse standing, moving, or in busy places — even though every test comes back normal. It's real, it has a name, and it's treatable.
Post-Concussion Dizziness
Dizziness, fog, and visual symptoms that linger after a concussion. Usually there are several causes at once — and each one has its own targeted treatment.
Cervicogenic Dizziness
Dizziness and unsteadiness tied to neck pain, stiffness, or whiplash — symptoms that rise and fall with your neck. Hands-on care plus sensory retraining addresses the source.
Ménière's Disease
Unpredictable vertigo attacks with ear pressure, ringing, and changing hearing. Managed primarily by your physician — with vestibular therapy to steady your balance and confidence between and after attacks.
Bilateral Vestibular Loss & Hypofunction
When both inner ears are affected: bouncing vision with movement and imbalance that's worst in the dark or on uneven ground. Rehabilitation is the cornerstone of becoming steadier and safer.
Don't See Your Exact Condition?
This isn't an exhaustive list. Vestibular therapy also helps with age-related balance decline, general unsteadiness and fall risk, motion sensitivity, and persistent dizziness that hasn't yet been explained. If dizziness or balance is affecting your life, reach out — we'll help you figure out whether an evaluation makes sense.
When to Seek Emergency Care Instead
Some symptoms need immediate medical attention rather than physical therapy. Seek emergency care if dizziness comes with sudden weakness or numbness, difficulty speaking, facial drooping, double vision, a sudden severe headache, loss of consciousness, or chest pain. These can signal a medical emergency.
