About diagnosis, treatment and recovery
What is vestibular rehabilitation and how does it work?
Vestibular rehabilitation is an evidence-based exercise and training approach that supports the brain’s adaptation (compensation) to imbalance and the relearning of balance.
Can dizziness (vertigo) be resolved with rehabilitation?
Depending on the cause of dizziness, goal-directed exercise and training reduce dizziness and markedly improve balance in most patients.
How do the balance platform and virtual reality help?
These systems make training safe, measurable and motivating; with objective feedback they restore the harmony between eye, inner ear and body sense.
How are fear of falling and fall risk reduced?
A fall-prevention program is planned with objective gait analysis, lower-limb strengthening, posture and safe walking strategies.
What are gaze stabilization and habituation exercises for?
Gaze stabilization helps maintain clarity during head movement; habituation exercises provide graded, controlled exposure to dizziness-triggering movements.
Is balance training possible after a stroke or neurological disease?
Yes; for patients with balance disorder after a neurological disease or stroke, the program is planned individually by the multidisciplinary team.
How long does a balance rehabilitation program last and how many sessions are needed?
Duration and number of sessions vary by the cause of dizziness and your goals; they are planned individually at your first evaluation.
Do the exercises temporarily increase dizziness?
Some exercises may temporarily increase dizziness at first; this is an expected part of the brain’s adaptation process and is progressed in a controlled way.
How is progress measured?
Progress is tracked with objective balance and gait measurements, and the program is updated according to the results.
How does the process work for patients coming from abroad?
International patients receive visa, transfer, accommodation and medical interpreter support; evaluation and follow-up can be coordinated remotely.
