Virtual Vestibular Physiotherapy
Virtual Vestibular Physiotherapy* is an excellent alternative when in-person care is not an option or simply inconvenient. Specialized vestibular care is often not available in smaller communities and access to expert care can be very limited. In addition, vertigo can seriously limit your ability to leave home, drive or even tolerate being a passenger in the car.
Through the help of video technology, virtual sessions are an effective alternative to in-person care. You will experience the same high-quality consultation and treatment experience to get you on the right track towards recovery. Vestibular rehabilitation emphasizes thorough information gathering, therapeutic coaching, exercise prescription and detailed lifestyle education that will equip you with everything you need to recover from the comfort of your home.
