Vestibular Physiotherapy

Vestibular physiotherapy is a specialized form of physical therapy designed to help individuals who are experiencing problems with their vestibular system. The vestibular system is responsible for maintaining balance, spatial orientation, and coordinating eye movements. When this system becomes disrupted, it can result in symptoms such as dizziness, vertigo, imbalance, nausea, and vision issues.

Vestibular physiotherapy aims to alleviate these symptoms by using specific exercises and techniques that target the central nervous system’s ability to adapt to and compensate for vestibular dysfunction. We are thrilled to have Bernards Tonks on our team at The Health League. Bernard is a vestibular physiotherapist with over 35 years of experience in musculoskeletal and neurological rehabilitation. Bernard’s career has been dedicated to the treatment of vestibular, balance, disequilibrium and dizziness conditions. He is also well known among his colleagues for instructing courses in vestibular rehabilitation and concussion management throughout Canada and across the globe.
