Vestibular & Concussion Rehabilitation
in Torrington, CT
Dizziness, vertigo, and the fog that follows a concussion are frightening, and they are treatable. We have an AIB-VRC certified provider and a vestibular specialist with 16 years of experience, a depth most clinics in the area simply do not have.
Specialized care for dizziness, vertigo, and concussion
Your vestibular system, the balance organs of the inner ear and how they talk to your brain and eyes, is what keeps the world steady when you move. When it is disrupted by BPPV, an inner-ear problem, or a concussion, the result can be vertigo, imbalance, nausea, and visual strain.
Vestibular rehabilitation is a specialized, evidence-based program that retrains this system. For conditions like BPPV, specific repositioning maneuvers can resolve vertigo quickly. For others, a customized program of gaze-stabilization, balance, and habituation exercises gradually calms the symptoms and restores steady, confident movement.
Concussion recovery often overlaps with this work, since dizziness, visual strain, and balance problems are common after a head injury. Our certified provider builds a graded plan to get you back to school, work, screens, and activity safely.
