Vestibular rehabilitation
Physiotherapy-led exercises targeting balance and dizziness arising from vestibular dysfunction, using habituation and gaze-stabilisation techniques.
What it is & how it works
Physiotherapy-led exercises targeting balance and dizziness arising from vestibular (inner-ear or central balance-pathway) dysfunction, using habituation, gaze-stabilisation, and balance-training techniques.
How it's done
Typically administered as outpatient sessions of roughly 30–45 minutes, weekly, with a structured home-exercise program between visits, delivered by a physiotherapist trained in vestibular rehabilitation, over a course of several weeks to a few months.

This varies by individual. Many people improve within about six to eight weekly sessions, though some need only one or two visits and others require several months of guided exercises, with consistent practice of the home program being an important factor in outcome.
Not always. Most people see meaningful improvement in dizziness and balance, but there's no guarantee of complete resolution, and results depend partly on the underlying cause and how consistently the home exercise program is followed.
