Balance and Vestibular Therapy

View Brochure

Our physical therapists are nationally certified in Vestibular Rehabilitation. Treating dizziness and balance disorders, the program helps improve the lives of those suffering from:

  • Falls
  • Fear of Falling
  • Dizziness (including Vertigo)
  • Occupational Therapy
  • Lightheadedness
  • A sense of spinning
  • Trouble walking - unsteady on your feet
  • A sense of imbalance

Therapy and rehabilitation helps patients lead a safer and more active life.

  • Increase independence in home and community mobility
  • Decrease the risk for falls and fall related injuries
  • Improve the symptoms of dizziness and imbalance
  • Learn how to manage symptoms and balance problems

Computerized dynamic posturography (CDP), also called test of balance (TOB), is a non-invasive specialized clinical assessment technique used to quantify the central nervous system adaptive mechanisms (sensory, motor and central) involved in the control of posture and balance, both in normal (such as in physical education and sports training) and abnormal conditions (particularly in the diagnosis of balance disorders and in physical therapy and postural re-education).

Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation

Bioness
Bioness offers award-winning medical devices designed to benefit people with stroke, Multiple Sclerosis, traumatic brain injury, Cerebral Palsy, and spinal cord injury. These products use electrical stimulation to help people regain mobility and independence, to improve quality of life and productivity.

Hand Rehabilitation System
The NESS H200 is an advanced therapy system designed to use mild electrical stimulation to improve the way your arm works. It may help you get the most out of therapy, and reduce complications including muscle spasms. If the H200 is right for you, it may make it easier for you to drink from a glass, reach for things, write, and use two hands again. Plus, the H200 may help your rehabilitation because it trains your hand so one day it might work better on its own. It is designed to be easy to use and can be put on with just one hand.

Foot Drop
The NESS L300 is an advanced foot drop system designed to use mild stimulation to lift your foot to help you walk more safely and easily. If the L300 is right for you, it may be easier to walk on flat ground, up and down stairs, as well as on uneven surfaces. This light-weight device is designed to fit just below your knee and to be put on and taken off with one hand. Use of the L300 may eliminate the need to wear a rigid, heavy orthosis.

Pelvic Floor Therapy

Pelvic Control Therapy uses proven techniques and technology to help you regain bladder and/or bowel control. The majority of people with incontinence can overcome it, safely and effectively, without surgery or drug therapy.

We provide a private and confidential consultation with a licensed physical therapist specialized in pelvic floor dysfunctions. An evaluation will be performed including an assessment of your medical history, incontinence history, and overall postural alignment and function. Through state-of-the art biofeedback, your pelvic muscle activity will be monitored and displayed for you. With this information the therapist will be able to develop a comprehensive personalized treatment program. Treatments may consist of biofeedback, pelvic muscle rehabilitation, bladder retraining, diet modifications, and lifestyle changes. A simple regimen of home exercises, that when done as instructed, can result in life-long bladder and/or bowel control.
