Vestibular Rehabilitation & Balance Unit

Vestibular rehabilitation and balance therapy unit

The vestibular system, located in the inner ear, is your body's internal GPS. When it malfunctions due to displaced crystals (BPPV), viral infections, or neurological conditions, it causes debilitating vertigo, dizziness, and a profound loss of balance. Our Vestibular Rehabilitation Unit is specifically equipped to diagnose and treat these disorienting conditions.

Specialized Neuro-Otology Rehab

Properly treating vertigo requires highly specific training. At Viva Physio, under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Abeer Elwishy, we utilize clinical protocols to desensitize the balance system and prompt the brain to compensate for inner-ear deficits.

Medication can only suppress the symptoms of dizziness, leaving you drowsy. Vestibular physical therapy treats the mechanical and neurological root causes of the problem, offering a permanent solution.

Features of Our Balance Unit

  • Proprioceptive Balance Boards: Utilizing foam pads and unstable surfaces to challenge the body's somatosensory system, forcing the brain to adapt and stabilize.
  • Visual Tracking Stations: Specific focal exercises designed to treat Oscillopsia (blurred vision with head movement), stabilizing your gaze to stop nausea.
  • Clinical Plinths for Repositioning: Treatment tables specifically used to perform the Epley and Semont maneuvers, which physically move displaced crystals out of the inner ear canals.
  • Gait Stabilization Corridors: Safe zones where patients practice walking with head turns, improving dynamic balance without the risk of falling.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I need Vestibular Rehabilitation?

If you feel the room spinning when you roll over in bed, experience unsteadiness when walking, or suffer from motion sickness and nausea, you are a prime candidate for a vestibular assessment at our Nasr City clinic.

Are the balance exercises in the clinic safe?

Yes. Our vestibular unit is designed to challenge your balance in a 100% safe, controlled, and heavily supervised environment, ensuring you never fall while your brain relearns stability.
