Everyone is different!
No two dizziness problems are the same, so every treatment program is tailored to you and your specific problem. But generally our approach is as described below.
Initial assessment
Your first appointment will involve an initial assessment by a physiotherapist experienced in the asessment and treatment of dizziness and balance problems (approx 90 minutes).
Individualised program
An individualised treatment program will then be developed to address specific goals. Once you have agreed this with the physiotherapist, you will need to continue the exercises in your own home, until the next appointment.
Ongoing assessments
At subsequent appointments your physio will assess your progress and your exercises will be updated as appropriate (approx. 45 minutes per appointment). The number of appointments will vary depending upon the individual and the problem being addressed and you will discuss this with your physiotherapist.

Some extra resources if you would like to learn a bit more!
There is lots of information on the internet about dizziness and vestibular rehabilitation, but the two links below are more credible than most, so we suggest you start there.
Remember to consult your doctor, or a specialist like ourselves, before you do too much self-diagnosis!
- Vestibular Disorders Association (a well funded American association)
- A page devoted to explaining dizziness and balance disorders maintained by an American doctor who has been curating the page for several years.
