Vestibular Rehabilitation and Dizziness

Dizziness, balance issues and vertigo are often as a result of an inner ear (vestibular) condition. Our specialist Vestibular Rehab Physio will do a thorough assessment, and then use a range of unique techniques (e.g. the Epley Manoeuvre) and exercises to improve these symptoms. By focusing on your individual needs, we aim to restore your confidence in daily activities and improve your quality of life.

Treatment involves an initial assessment of eye movements, head movements and balance. A customised exercise programme will be developed for you, which you then need to practice regularly at home. It may include specific techniques used to reposition fragments in the inner ear e.g. The Epley manoeuvre, together with education and advice on activities of daily living to improve confidence and function, and advice on falls prevention.

This should encourage the central nervous system to compensate. The exercise programme should cause some symptoms while the exercises are performed, and for a short while afterwards. This is necessary to gain maximal recovery.
The treatment programme may last several months during which time you will probably need to see the physiotherapist once every 2-3 weeks for reassessment and an update of your exercise programme.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUERIES PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT US FOR MORE INFORMATION OR AN INFORMAL CHAT. IT IS ALWAYS ADVISABLE TO SEEK TREATMENT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

My family and I have been here a few times over the years with various sporting injuries. The service is always very friendly and we have all been fixed with great treatment and advice. I highly recommend them.

I visited Nicola with a neck problem and from the outset I felt that she understood me. She commenced treatment with confidence and great knowledge of her skills and released the tense muscles almost immediately. I would not hesitate to contact Nicola and her team. They are always very accommodating and helpful, not to mention having a carpark at the premises. Thank you Nicola 🙂

I've been using Vineyards recently with an issue which probably came about from over doing it at the gym. Walking was becoming a problem...Esme was superb. She is knowledgeable, personable and professional, and willing to answer all sorts of questions relating to muscle and general health. After a few sessions, and some exercises I'm fit again! So a big thankyou, and glad to highly recommend Vineyards Physio

I was recommended Rachel at Physio Vineyards for some vestibular physiotherapy, following a diagnosis of labrynthitis; she completely fixed me in just over a month! I almost crawled into the first appointment, having to hold onto things as I was so dizzy. She worked on some basic exercises with me, gave me some more to do at home, and helped my inner ear to rebalance again. I'm so grateful that she got me back to normal life and work, and would recommend Physio Vineyards to everyone. I always found it easy to book appointments, and everyone I met there was extremely helpful.

This is my second bout of appointments with Nicola Nash for two separate and debilitating injuries. On both occasions she has been superb throughout, her treatment getting me walking again. She is very professional and knowledgable and listens to what you are saying and applies a variety of treatments seeking the best outcome. I do not usually give testimonies, but in this case I make an exception. 1st Class treatment. All the staff are very pleasant too.

I used Vineyard Physio for help after an ankle sprain. The system for booking is very easy and I was seen the next day. Rachel was great and my ankle recovered quickly with her help and guidance. Highly recommended.

I knew it was about time that I did something about a shoulder issue. The Vineyards were very reassuring, advised me what the problem was, eased it for me and advised me of exercises to help alleviate the problem. I feel so much better now I know what the issue is and what to do about it going forward. Everything at The Vineyards was excellent from the friendly reception to the great treatment and advice.
