Where is My Ear Pain Coming From?
Pain in the inner ear, which is part of the vestibular system, can stem from various sources. For instance, common issues include injuries like concussions as well as specific conditions such as vestibular neuritis and vestibular migraines.
Furthermore, these causes can often lead to a range of painful symptoms.
Causes of Vestibular Disorders and Inner Ear Pain
As a result of these issues within the vestibular system, symptoms like dizziness, vertigo, and balance problems often arise. Therefore, it’s essential to understand how vestibular physical therapy can help.
The Role of Physical Therapy in Vestibular Issues
Vestibular physical therapy is a specialized approach to managing inner ear-related issues, including vertigo and balance disorders. By specifically targeting the root causes of these symptoms, this type of physical therapy can alleviate discomfort and improve overall function.
How Can Vestibular Physical Therapy Help?
If you’re struggling with persistent dizziness or balance problems, physical therapy for inner ear issues may, in fact, be the solution you need. Therapists use a combination of exercises and techniques designed to restore balance, reduce vertigo, and minimize the impact of vestibular migraines.

What & How We Treat
Vertigo
One common cause of vertigo is benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), a condition where tiny crystals in the inner ear become dislodged, causing a false sense of movement. We can employ a technique called canalith repositioning maneuvers, such as the Epley maneuver, to reposition these crystals and alleviate symptoms.
Vestibular Rehabilitation
This is a specialized form of physical therapy targeting the vestibular system to enhance its adaptability and reduce symptoms associated with dizziness and imbalance.
Muscle, Joint & Posture Issues
Our physical therapists may address contributing factors such as muscle weakness, joint stiffness, or posture issues that can exacerbate balance problems.
Exercises and Education
Through a combination of specific exercises, manual therapy, and patient education, our physical therapists can improve your ability to move confidently and maintain balance – ultimately reducing the impact of vertigo and associated symptoms.
