Vestibular Physiotherapy in Marylebone

If you are living with persistent dizziness, a spinning sensation, or an unsettling feeling
of unsteadiness, you know how heavily it impacts your daily life. Simple tasks like
walking across a room, turning your head, or navigating busy supermarkets can feel
exhausting and overwhelming.

You do not have to just "live with it". Vestibular physiotherapy is a safe, evidence-based,
drug-free treatment designed to target the root causes of dizziness and balance
disorders. By retraining how your brain communicates with your balance system, we
help you reduce your symptoms and get back to the activities you love.

What is Vestibular Physiotherapy?

The vestibular system is an intricate network within your inner ear that works in tandem with your eyes and joints to keep you balanced, oriented, and steady. When an injury, illness, or age-related change disrupts this system, the brain receives mismatched or conflicting signals. This results in vertigo, nausea, and general instability.

Vestibular physiotherapy—also known as vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT)—uses specialized, targeted physical exercises and manual manoeuvres to stimulate neuroplasticity. This natural process encourages the central nervous system to adapt, compensate for inner ear changes, and accurately process balance information once again.

Common Conditions We Treat

We provide tailored clinical treatment plans for a wide range of balance and vestibular
disorders, including:

Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV): Short, intense bursts of
spinning vertigo triggered by specific head movements.
Labyrinthitis and Vestibular Neuritis: Inner ear inflammation or infections
causing sudden, severe dizziness, imbalance, and nausea.
Vestibular Migraine: Dizziness, motion sensitivity, or unsteadiness linked to a
history of migraines.
Ménière’s Disease: A chronic inner ear disorder causing episodes of vertigo,
tinnitus, and fluctuating hearing loss.
Post-Concussion Dizziness: Persistent dizziness or visual tracking issues
following a head injury or trauma.
Age-Related Balance Decline: General unsteadiness or a fear of falling that
develops as the body's natural sensory systems change over time.

Why Choose Physical Edge for Your Vestibular Therapy?

Living with vertigo and dizziness can feel incredibly isolating. It is not just about the spinning sensation; it is the exhausting fear of the next sudden attack, the anxiety of losing your footing in public, and the frustration of having your independence stripped
away.

At Physical Edge we truly understand how deeply these symptoms disrupt your daily life, your work, and your confidence. Elain Freeman is our vestibular rehab expert, providing a compassionate, supportive environment combined with elite international
training to help you feel grounded, safe, and in control again.

When you trust Physical Edge with your recovery, we address both the physicalsymptoms and the emotional toll of balance disorders through:

Decades of Trusted Expertise: Benefit from Elain’s 27 years of clinical experience and specialized credentials from the world-renowned American Institute of Balance (AIB).
A Deeply Personal Evaluation: We look beyond the surface, conducting a thorough, gentle assessment of your medical history, walking patterns, and visual tracking to find the exact triggers behind your dizziness.
Retraining Your Brain to Stop the Spinning: We design bespoke, at-home exercise plans using targeted gaze-stabilization and habituation techniques, gradually teaching your brain to ignore faulty balance signals.
Rapid Relief for Crystal-Related Vertigo: If you suffer from BPPV, we use gentle, precise manual repositioning techniques (like the Epley manoeuvre) to lift the cloud of spinning—often resolving symptoms in just one or two sessions.
Rebuilding Your Physical Confidence: We focus on lowering your fall risks by strengthening your leg muscles and improving dynamic balance, giving you the stability needed to navigate crowded London streets safely.
Calming Your Nervous System: We treat the painful neck stiffness, tension headaches, and constant muscle fatigue that develop when you rigidly hold your body still to avoid triggering dizziness.
A Clear Pathway to Lasting Relief: By committing to your tailored program, most patients notice significant, life-changing improvements in their balance and visual clarity within four to eight weeks.

Take the First Step Toward Better Balance
Vertigo can make your world feel incredibly small, but it does not have to stay that way. You do not have to navigate these exhausting challenges alone. Visit Our Central London Clinic
