Vestibular rehabilitation is a specialized form of therapy used for selected problems involving dizziness, gaze stability, balance, and motion sensitivity. The first step after an accident is determining why those symptoms are occurring.
Florida’s Medical Home for Injury Care.
Vestibular rehabilitation uses individualized exercises and strategies intended to address specific vestibular and balance impairments. The program may include gaze-stability, habituation, balance, or functional exercises depending on the diagnosis and examination.
Dizziness after trauma can have causes that are not primarily vestibular, so patients should be appropriately evaluated. When vestibular rehabilitation is indicated, it can be coordinated with the rest of the patient’s injury-care plan.
Florida Injury Centers evaluates the accident, symptoms, function, relevant history, medications, and clinical findings, then helps coordinate appropriate next steps. The plan may include rehabilitation, imaging or specialty consultation when clinically appropriate, with structured medical follow-up.
