Expert care without the trip
Specialized vestibular care often isn’t available in smaller communities, and vertigo itself can make it hard to leave home, drive, or even sit in a car as a passenger. Virtual vestibular rehabilitation removes that barrier.
Through secure video, you get the same thorough consultation and treatment approach as in clinic. Vestibular rehab relies heavily on detailed history-taking, therapeutic coaching, exercise prescription and lifestyle education — all of which work very well online — so you can recover from the comfort of home.
Ontario residents only
Virtual sessions are available to anyone living in Ontario.
How a virtual session works
Before your visit
You book online and receive a secure video link. Have any relevant medical reports to hand, and a clear space where you can safely sit, stand and turn.
Assessment by video
We take a full history, then guide you through movement, balance and eye tests on camera to understand what’s driving your symptoms.
Your plan, delivered
You’ll leave with a clear explanation, targeted exercises and written instructions, with follow-ups to progress your program and track your recovery.
