What are balance and dizziness evaluations and how can they help with my hearing health?

Balance and dizziness evaluations are important aspects of maintaining overall hearing health and preventing potential hearing damage. At Melody Hearing Clinic, these evaluations are essential for diagnosing and treating balance disorders that often accompany hearing issues.

During a balance and dizziness evaluation, our expert team uses advanced diagnostic tools such as videonystagmography (VNG) to assess the function of your inner ear and vestibular system, which are crucial for maintaining balance. These tests can identify various types of hearing loss, including conductive hearing damage, which might affect your balance.

Understanding the relationship between your balance and your hearing can significantly help in creating a personalized treatment plan. For example, our customized vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT) targets specific balance disorders, helping to mitigate symptoms of dizziness and improve overall stability. This comprehensive approach ensures that your hearing health is thoroughly addressed, contributing to a better quality of life.

By scheduling a Hearing Test and balance evaluation at Melody Hearing Clinic, you can take proactive steps to maintain your hearing and balance health. Our team, in collaboration with affiliated ENT doctors, offers these services across our five convenient locations in Downtown Edmonton, Mill Woods, Sherwood Park, South Edmonton, and St. Albert.
