Vestibular rehab Vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT) is an exercise-based program designed to promote central nervous system compensation for inner ear deficits. VRT can help with a variety of vestibular problems, including benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) and the unilateral or bilateral vestibular hypofunction (reduced inner ear function on one or both sides) associated with Ménière’s disease, labyrinthitis, and vestibular neuritis. Even individuals with long-term unresolved inner ear disorders who have undergone a period of medical management with little or no success may benefit. VRT can also help people with an acute or abrupt loss of vestibular function following surgery for vestibular problems. Low back pain is a common musculoskeletal disorder affecting 80% of people at some point in their lives. It is the most common cause of job-related disability, a leading contributor to missed work, and the second most common neurological ailment — only headache is more common.[1] It can be either acute, subacute or chronic in duration. With conservative measures, the symptoms of low back pain typically show significant improvement within a few weeks from onset. Post Surgery Whilst surgery can correct certain medical problems, you can often only recover your true physical capabilities and return to full mobility and enjoy as normal a lifestyle as possible if you follow a defined physiotherapy programme after your operation. Although mostly connected to orthopaedics, physiotherapy can help people who have suffered from a variety of other conditions.

By following a recommended physiotherapy program both as an outpatient and through exercises you can do at home, it helps to speed up the recovery and healing process and to reduce stiffness, pain and increase your mobility.Generally speaking, the role of a physiotherapist is to incorporate a variety of techniques in order to help your bones, muscles and joints, which may have previously been damaged or broken to work again to their full potential.Not only is it just about exercising, a physio’s role is also about educating people and offering them advice about how a particular condition they have been suffering from may have arisen, how it might have been prevented in the first place and how to prevent it from reoccurring in the future.
