Abstract
Vestibular physical therapy is a specialized exercise based intervention for management of symptoms associated with vestibular dysfunction that manifests itself as dizziness and imbalance related to position or movement of the body. The aim of this review is to evaluate and summarize the efficacy of vestibular physical therapy for the treatment of vestibular disorders. A literature review was conducted to identify references related to vestibular disorders plus rehabilitation. Articles ranged from descriptions of vestibular dysfunction, its diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation in various populations. Case studies, case series with no controls, and controlled studies support the use of vestibular rehabilitation physical therapy for persons with peripheral vestibular disorders. There are emerging data that support vestibular rehabilitation physical therapy for persons with central vestibular disorders.
