Allied's Balance and Vestibular
Rehabilitation Program |

Allied Medical & Rehabilitation is proud of their Balance & Vestibular Rehabilitation
Program. Allied Medical & Rehabilitation offers a
comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach to the
evaluation and treatment of all balance and vestibular
disorders. Our program is designed to decrease the
symptoms associated with vertigo (a sudden spinning or
whirling sensation) and dizziness (a loss of your
sense of orientation or feeling imbalanced). We are
also able to help increase safety by improving balance
(especially for frequent fallers) and enhance
patient's visual following and tracking problems. |

Patients are seen for an initial evaluation and if
your case is accepted you will be treated 2 to 3 times
to see if any of your symptoms improve. You will then
be re-evaluated and we will discuss any further care
if necessary If you desire communication with your
personal physician this will also be carried out. You
will also be given an individualized home exercise program to
help speed recovery. |
