Physical Therapy for Vestibular Issues

Vestibular Therapy in Georgetown, KY

Stop the Spins, Steady Your Steps

Dizziness isn’t just disorienting — it’s dangerous. For older adults, it’s one of the top causes of falls, fear, and frustration. If you’ve felt lightheaded, unsteady, or like the room is spinning when you move your head, your vestibular system might be to blame.

Vestibular issues don’t go away on their own — but they’re very treatable. You just need the right evaluation and a focused plan to retrain your balance system.

At Hyphen, we specialize in helping older adults with dizziness, vertigo, and balance challenges. Our Doctors of Physical Therapy are trained in vestibular rehab techniques that reset your body’s internal GPS — so you feel stable, safe, and confident again.

Your personalized program may include:

  • Vestibular exercises to reduce dizziness and improve head movement control

  • Balance training to prevent falls

  • Eye-tracking and coordination work for better spatial awareness

  • Gait retraining and safety strategies

  • Education on managing symptoms and avoiding flare-ups
