Case Studies
BPPV Treatment
A self-employed electrician came to Rehab Pro with vertigo symptoms every time he rolled over in bed, looked up or bent his head down at work.
A thorough vestibular assessment by our vestibular physiotherapist decoded his vertigo was BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo) and was treated with the Epley manoeuvre (a specific repositioning technique to treat posterior canal BPPV).
After one session, the vertigo had stopped and he was able to return to his work with no ongoing symptoms.
Vestibular Migraine Treatment
A 30-year-old woman came to Rehab Pro with a diagnosis of vestibular migraine.
She reported multiple episodes in the last 6 months of vertigo/dizziness symptoms alongside head pain and light/sound sensitivity.
She completed a 4-week Migraine Reset program™ consisting of:
- Nervous System Regulation
- Manual Therapy for Headache & Migraine
- Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy (VRT)
including eye, head and balance exercises.
After completing the program, she reported less frequent and intense migraines, and very little dizziness. She was given a plan to manage flare-ups and continue recovery.
Stroke Rehabilitation
A 68-year-old man came to Rehab Pro following an ischaemic stroke 3 months ago. He reported difficulty walking, poor balance, and weakness on his left side. His family was concerned about his risk of falling at home.
He completed 6 weeks of intense rehabilitation consisting of:
- Upper and Lower Limb Retraining
- Balance and Gait Retraining
- Functional Task-based Exercises
After completing the program, he was walking independently indoors and with greater confidence outdoors. He was given a home exercise program to continue building strength and will continue regular semi-private sessions at our clinic.

-
Yes. A vestibular physiotherapist is trained to find the cause of your dizziness and treat it. Many causes, like BPPV, can be fixed in just a few sessions. You do not have to live with it.

Dizziness is a general feeling of being unsteady/lightheaded/floaty.
Vertigo is when the room feels like it is spinning, even when you are standing still.
Both can be caused by problems in the inner ear or brain, and both can be treated with physiotherapy. -
Yes. Many chronic headaches and migraines start in the neck and upper spine. A physiotherapist can treat the muscles and joints that are triggering your headaches, reducing how often they happen and how bad they feel.
