Specialised physiotherapy provides effective, often rapid relief. **Category:** Neurological | **Date:** Jan 8, 2026 | **Author:** Dr. Vaishali Suri (P.T.) | **Read time:** 7 min read --- ## Balance Problems and Vertigo: Physiotherapy Treatment in Faridabad Balance problems and vertigo can be profoundly disabling — the fear of falling, the dizziness with head movements, and the loss of confidence in walking and daily activities significantly reduce quality of life. Physiotherapy — specifically vestibular rehabilitation and balance retraining — is the most effective treatment for most balance and vertigo conditions, often producing dramatic improvement within weeks. At **Realign Rehab Clinic**, NIT-5, Faridabad, our expert physiotherapist Dr. Vaishali Suri provides evidence-based treatment tailored to your specific needs. We serve patients from NIT, Sector 14, Old Faridabad, Green Field Colony, Ballabhgarh, Surajkund, and surrounding areas. > **Research Insight:** NICE guidelines (2017, reviewed 2022) give vestibular rehabilitation therapy the highest evidence grade (Grade A) for persistent unilateral vestibular hypofunction, with research showing 85% meaningful improvement within 8 weeks. ## Causes and Risk Factors - Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) — displaced otoconia crystals in the inner ear semicircular canals - Vestibular neuritis or labyrinthitis — viral damage to the inner ear balance organ - Cervicogenic dizziness — neck joint and muscle dysfunction contributing to balance problems - Age-related vestibular decline — sensorineural degeneration causing imbalance in elderly - Menière's disease — episodic vertigo with tinnitus and hearing changes - Post-concussion syndrome — balance disturbance after head injury ## Signs and Symptoms - Sudden intense spinning sensation (vertigo) triggered by head position changes - Unsteadiness when walking, particularly in the dark or on uneven surfaces - Dizziness when turning over in bed or looking up - Nausea associated with head movements - Falls or near-falls due to loss of balance - Constant low-grade light-headedness or floating sensation > BPPV is the most satisfying condition we treat — a 5-minute Epley manoeuvre can completely resolve what patients have been suffering with for months. But even complex vestibular conditions respond to vestibular rehabilitation with consistency and the right exercises. *— Dr. Vaishali Suri (BPT), Realign Rehab Clinic, Faridabad* ### Key Statistics - ✦ BPPV accounts for 20% of all vertigo presentations and is fully curable with the Epley manoeuvre - ✦ Vestibular rehabilitation improves balance in 85% of patients within 8 weeks (NICE 2022) - ✦ Untreated vestibular disorders lead to falls in 35% of elderly patients annually - ✦ Cervicogenic dizziness accounts for 20% of vertigo cases referred to physiotherapy - ✦ Fear of falling reduces physical activity by 50% in elderly patients, creating a dangerous deconditioning spiral ## Physiotherapy Treatment at Realign Rehab, Faridabad - Epley manoeuvre for BPPV — repositioning displaced otoconia crystals (95% effective in one session) - Vestibular habituation exercises — graded head movement exercises to recalibrate the vestibular system - Gaze stabilisation exercises — eye-head coordination retraining - Balance training on progressively challenging surfaces — foam, unstable platforms - Cervicogenic dizziness treatment — cervical mobilisation and muscle release - Fall prevention programme for elderly patients with balance disorders ## Recovery Programme **Phase 1 (Weeks 1–3): Pain Relief & Protection** — Hands-on manual therapy, ice/heat application, gentle range-of-motion exercises and education about posture and activity modification. **Phase 2 (Weeks 3–8): Restore Strength & Mobility** — Progressive strengthening exercises, stretching protocols, balance training, and functional movement retraining. **Phase 3 (Weeks 8–16): Return to Full Activity** — Sport- or task-specific conditioning, maintenance programme, and prevention strategies to avoid recurrence. ## Why Choose Realign Rehab Clinic in Faridabad?

For BPPV (the most common cause of vertigo), the Epley manoeuvre is curative in a single session for most patients. For other causes, vestibular rehabilitation significantly reduces dizziness and improves balance, often eliminating symptoms entirely. ### How quickly does the Epley manoeuvre work? For BPPV, the Epley manoeuvre (a series of head position changes) resolves vertigo in 80% of patients in the first session. A second session resolves most remaining cases. The success rate is 95% within 1–3 sessions. ### Is my dizziness vertigo or something more serious? Most dizziness is benign and vestibular in origin. Red flags requiring urgent medical attention: vertigo with sudden severe headache, double vision, difficulty speaking or swallowing, unilateral weakness or numbness, or loss of consciousness. If in doubt, seek immediate medical assessment. ### Can physiotherapy help with Menière's disease? Yes — while we cannot cure Menière's disease, vestibular rehabilitation between episodes improves central compensation, reduces the impact of episodes on daily function, and helps maintain balance capacity. Coordination with an ENT specialist is important. ## Book Your Consultation Ready to get back to pain-free living?
