Vestibular Therapy
Your journey to defeating dizziness starts here.
If you are someone struggling with dizziness, vertigo, and concussion symptoms I get how you are feeling.
​
Test after test, procedure and procedure, medication after medication, and appointment after appointment and STILL no one has any idea about how to help you. No one has given you an action plan to defeating these symptoms for good.
​
That's where we come in.

1.
Full Body Assessment
​
Your vestibular system plays an integral role in stabilizing the entire body for balance, head and eye coordination, tracking, and neck movements. During the evaluation, whether in person or online we take a deep dive into the root cause of your vestibular symptoms.
​
This can include assessments for head and eye coordination, dynamic balance with eyes open and closed, neck mobility, and full body strength.
2.
Teaching & Training
One of the foundational steps for managing and thriving through your vestibular disorder is understanding why you are experiencing symptoms.
Vestibular symptoms can't be touched, this can increase your anxiety around your symptoms. As someone who has personally struggled with these symptoms, I know that when you have a solid understanding of why you are feeling the way you do, you can't control it and thriving despite it.

Corrective Exercise
As we work through reducing your baseline symptoms, you will gradually begin to feel better (hurray!). But, just like a muscle that can be weak after a surgery, your vestibular system is weak and needs to be strengthened.
Here, we will be giving you exercises that will help strengthen your vestibular system at a pace that challenges you, but also doesn’t flare you. This will ensure that you are in control of your symptoms for good.
Before starting vestibular therapy with us, we offer a
30 minute Complementary Movement Analysis!
This is an opportunity to start getting to the root cause of your condition, get to know Dr. Julie and for Dr. Julie to get to know you so you feel totally confident before making any decisions.

Phase 1
Prepare
This is where vestibular therapy has failed you in the past, by not setting you up with a solid foundation to know how to manage your symptoms and reduce flareups!
In this phase, we prepare your body and mind for anti-dizziness training by reducing your anxieties around your symptoms, teach you actionable steps to heal your balance system, symptom tracking, grounding and pacing. We provide you with the right strategies, so that you can begin to feel more normal again!

Phase 2
Progress
This is where our anti-dizziness training comes into play!
​
During this phase, we will build from your results from phase 1 so that you can tolerate motion and daily tasks without symptoms.
​
It usually commonly includes things like head and eye coordination, healthy motion training, visual and advanced balanced exercises to restore better communication between your body’s balance system.
