Dizziness & Vertigo in South Edmonton & St. Albert

There are many causes of dizziness & vertigo. Some are treatable with physiotherapy. In particular, we can address problems with the vestibular apparatus in the inner ear, and dysfunction of the joints and muscles of the cervical spine, both of which can be a source of dizziness.

Both our South Edmonton and our St. Albert locations have dedicated therapists who provide vestibular rehabilitation - therapy for dizziness and vertigo.  Some of the conditions that can be treated include:

• BPPV
• Vestibular neuritis and labrynthitis
• Cervicogenic dizziness

Dizziness & Vertigo – Do you need to see a doctor before the physiotherapist?

Although it is not commonly the case, dizziness and vertigo can be a symptom of a more serious medical condition, such as stroke or heart attack. It is important that you consult your physician immediately if you experience sudden dizziness or vertigo. Once they have ruled out a serious concern, they may then suggest you see a physiotherapist for treatment.
