VRT is a specialized form of therapy that is performed by a certified physical or occupational therapist that is intended to alleviate both the primary and secondary problems caused by vestibular disorders. It is an exercise-based program primarily designed to reduce vertigo and dizziness, gaze instability, and/or imbalance or falls. VRT is customized to address your specific problem with the goal of promoting compensation. Compensation techniques teach the brain to use other senses (vision and body sense) as a substitute for the deficient vestibular system. The three principle methods of exercise can be prescribed include habituation, gaze stabilization and/or balance training. While the vestibular deficit is usually permanent, VRT can help you feel and function much better. An important part of VRT is establishing an exercise program that can be performed regularly at home. Gaylord's specially trained therapists can evaluate you and design a plan of therapy to meet your specific needs.
