What is vestibular rehabilitation?

Vestibular rehabilitation (VR) is a form of specialized therapy that promotes healing in the peripheral and/or central parts of the vestibular system.  Vestibular rehab is therapy aimed directly at improving the functional relationship between the inner ear, brain, eyes, muscles and nerves through central nervous system compensation.  Vestibular rehabilitation can provide very quick relief from symptoms and is a powerful tool that can help empower individuals battling dizziness due to vestibular dysfunction.
