Neurophysiotherapists manage patients with dizziness issues through specialized treatment approaches and interventions. Our primary role involves conducting detailed assessments to pinpoint the underlying causes of dizziness, ranging from vestibular disorders to neurological conditions.
Using our neurology and physical therapy expertise, we design personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient’s specific needs and symptoms. We employ various vestibular rehabilitation exercises to improve balance and reduce vertigo sensations. Education is a key aspect of our role, as we educate patients about their condition, its triggers, and how to manage symptoms in daily life.
We collaborate closely with other healthcare professionals like neurologists, otolaryngologists, and audiologists to ensure comprehensive care. Through regular monitoring and reassessment, we track progress and adjust treatment plans accordingly to optimize outcomes.
Balance retraining exercises enhance proprioception and spatial orientation, thereby reducing falls and improving overall stability. Manual therapy techniques alleviate muscle tension and joint stiffness that could contribute to dizziness episodes. Lifestyle modifications and ergonomic advice form part of our recommendations to help patients minimize triggers and optimize their daily activities.
Neurophysiotherapists empower patients by equipping them with the tools and strategies to manage their dizziness effectively and improve their quality of life.
