What is vestibular rehabilitation therapy and how does it help in treating balance problems related to hearing damage?

Vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT) is a specialized form of therapy aimed at alleviating balance problems, particularly those related to hearing damage. At Melody Hearing Clinic, our team of experts utilizes VRT to target and treat balance disorders through customized exercises and treatments.

Hearing damage can often affect the vestibular system, leading to balance issues. VRT involves a set of exercises designed to improve balance and gaze stability. These exercises can significantly reduce symptoms such as dizziness and vertigo, enabling individuals to maintain their equilibrium better.

Besides providing comprehensive hearing protection and treatment options, Melody Hearing Clinic also offers detailed hearing tests to diagnose the extent of hearing loss and balance problems. This thorough evaluation includes audiometric and speech testing. For newborns, we offer Newborn Screening Hearing Tests to ensure early detection and intervention.

Working with affiliated ENT doctors, our registered hearing aid practitioners at Melody Hearing Clinic offer personalized care at locations including Downtown Edmonton, Mill Woods, Sherwood Park, South Edmonton, and St. Albert.
