TREATMENT
Treatment may consist of Vestibular rehabilitation, hearing devices and custom durable medical equipment when indicated. Vestibular rehabilitation is a specialized form of physical therapy designed to promote habituation and compensation for a wide variety of balance and vestibular disorders. The goal is to improve balance, decrease dizziness, and minimize falls by restoring vestibular function and postural control. There are many causes or reasons why a patient may need a vestibular and balance evaluation. Some of these reasons may include:
- Labyrinthitis-inner ear infection
- Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo
- Acute vertigo caused by head trauma or whiplash
- Chronic vertigo caused by chemical or drug toxicity
- Acoustic neuromas
- Meniere’s Disease
- Age-related multi-sensory deficits
- Stroke and vascular insufficiencies

Diagnosis We test patients you refer at your site based on times and dates

test. We will cover all the details with you prior to scheduling a test date.
Our company is approved to test in the majority of states in the U.S. You will
be asked to sign a simple agreement that allows us to utilize your facility for
testing and we pay you fair market value for your space and general supervision
on a monthly basis in accordance with your contract. It's that simple! We supply
the scheduling, techs, equipment, billing, collecting and professional reading
of the test. Our techs are well trained and have undergone extensive training in
the operation and performance of the equipment and testing included in a
complete and comprehensive balance evaluation.
Evaluation Results
The results are analyzed by Board Certified Medical Specialist
specializing in balance disorders. The information gathered during the
evaluation will be posted on a HIPPA compliant site for the provider to review.
The data will identify the origin of balance disorder and help determine the
most appropriate plan of treatment.
