At New Health Physiotherapy & Rehab., we provide specialized treatment for dizziness, balance problems, and headaches caused by concussions or vestibular disorders, helping you safely regain stability and normal function.
Vestibular rehabilitation is a specialised type of physiotherapy that treats balance-related problems such as vertigo, dizziness, lightheadedness, and unsteadiness. At some point in their lives, up to 35% of persons 40 years and older experience vestibular problems. These problems can affect body movement and daily activities. At New Health Physio in Guelph, Ontario, we provide evidence-based assessment and vestibular rehabilitation services. Our goal is to restore balance, reduce symptoms, and rebuild our patients’ confidence so they can live their daily lives independently and with assurance.
Inside your inner ear sits the vestibular system. It’s like your body’s built-in level and GPS combined. It helps you know where you are in space, keeps your eyes steady when you move, and stops you from tipping over when you turn your head too fast.
When that system gets irritated from an infection, a concussion, or even tiny crystals moving where they shouldn’t, you might feel dizzy, woozy, or off-balance. Vestibular rehabilitation steps in when those symptoms don’t just fade on their own. It employs particular techniques to retrain your brain and body to function together again. It seems easy, but it is very effective.
Sometimes your body gives indications, and sometimes it raises red flags. If you observe the following symptoms, you should consider vestibular rehabilitation:
One common symptom is feeling less confident when walking on an uneven surface or in a crowded area.
At New Health Physio, vestibular rehabilitation in Guelph isn’t a one-size-fits-all thing. Your physio starts with a proper assessment, looking at your symptoms, triggers, movement patterns, and the whole picture. From there, you get a personalised plan built around what you need.
That can include gaze stabilisation exercises, balance training, posture work, and gentle movement retraining. Everything stays non-invasive and grounded in evidence-based physiotherapy. No gimmicks, no rushing, just steady progress. And, some exercises might feel odd at first, but they’re designed that way to help your system relearn. It’s kind of cool when you think about it.
Vestibular rehab can help with a range of issues, including:
If your symptoms have been hanging around longer than expected, it’s usually a sign your body needs a little guidance.
Your first session usually involves chatting through your symptoms and seeing how your body responds to certain movements. From there, your physio builds a clear plan and walks you through each step, no guesswork. Progress gets checked regularly, and exercises change as you improve. You’ll also get home exercises, which honestly make a big difference when done consistently. Think of them as small daily tune-ups rather than homework.
Concussion symptoms can affect balance, coordination, focus, and overall confidence in daily movement. At New Health Physio, concussion rehabilitation is carefully integrated with vestibular therapy to address dizziness, headaches, visual disturbances, and sensitivity to motion.
Each concussion recovery plan is tailored to the individual, combining clinical assessment, guided exercises, and gradual activity progression to support safe healing and a steady return to normal routines, work, and sport.
