Vestibular RehabilitationIn Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, & New York

Have you recently been experiencing vertigo or dizziness?

Have you fallen recently or had difficulty walking or maintaining your balance? These symptoms may be caused by dysfunction of your vestibular system, located in your inner ears.

The vestibular system is the sensory system responsible for processing information involved with balance, spatial orientation, and eye movements. Vestibular disorders can develop if there is damage to the system from disease, injury, genetics, or other causes.

Balance rehabilitation is an exercise-based treatment program used to reduce dizziness and treat vestibular disorders. During your first appointment at MOTION PT, a physical therapist will evaluate your condition, identify any problem areas, and develop a personalized treatment plan in hope of reducing dizziness and improving quality of life. Research has shown vestibular rehabilitation therapy can be effective in combating these disorders and reducing symptoms related to these disorders.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Your first appointment will include a full, comprehensive evaluation so we can understand what’s causing your pain and build a personalized treatment plan that works for you. We ask that you arrive 15–20 minutes early so you have time to complete any remaining paperwork and review your insurance benefits. You can save time by completing your new patient forms online before your first visit.

    During the evaluation, your therapist will take time to learn about your medical history, listen to your concerns, and perform a detailed assessment to understand the root cause of your symptoms. This information helps us create a treatment plan tailored specifically to your needs and goals.

    You’ll then begin your initial treatment session. This usually includes guided exercises and stretches that focus on building strength, improving mobility, and reducing pain. Depending on your condition, your therapist may also incorporate other techniques to support your recovery.

    At the end of your visit, you’ll receive a personalized Home Exercise Program (HEP) to continue your progress between sessions.
    Follow-up visits focus on advancing your program, tracking progress, and making adjustments to keep you moving forward. Because we schedule future visits ahead of time, please bring your schedule with you to help us plan your upcoming visits.

  • We understand that unexpected situations can arise, and you may find yourself running late or needing to cancel your appointment. If that happens, please call your clinic directly. This allows us to adjust the schedule and reschedule you in a timely manner so your care plan stays on track.

  • Please bring a form of identification, your insurance card, and a method of payment if required. Having these items ready helps us check you in smoothly and ensures there are no delays with your appointment. Some of our clinics operate as cashless and checkless locations, meaning credit card payments are the only form of payment accepted. Online payment through MyChart is also available for your convenience.

    For every visit, we recommend wearing loose, comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely and gives your therapist access to the area being treated. Many patients find that athletic wear, such as shorts, yoga pants, and sneakers, works best, but any clothing that lets you move comfortably is acceptable.

  • During your initial evaluation, your therapist may ask you a number of questions to determine what the cause of your pain is. This can include questions about your sleep habits, activity level, and work environment. They will also ask for a medical history, and then typically ask direct questions about where and when you experience pain.
