Have you ever felt like the room is spinning even though you’re standing still? Or as if you’re being pulled to one side, even when you’re not moving? These strange, uncomfortable sensations are classic signs of vertigo. At Rehab Station, we understand how frustrating and scary vertigo can be and we’re here to help you find relief through expert physiotherapy.
What is Vertigo?
Vertigo is a condition where you feel dizzy or like you’re spinning, even when you’re not moving. It’s not just regular light headedness. Vertigo often makes people feel off balance, unsteady, and even nauseous. You might feel like you’re on a moving ride, when in reality you’re just sitting or standing still.
The most common type of vertigo is called BPPV, which stands for Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo. While the name sounds complicated, it simply means that certain head positions cause temporary but strong episodes of vertigo. It happens because tiny crystals in your inner ear, which help with balance, move into the wrong place and confuse your brain.
Symptoms of BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo)
Vertigo caused by BPPV often shows up when you:
- Turn your head quickly
- Lie down or get up from bed
- Roll over in bed
- Look up or bend down
The symptoms of BPPV include:
- Sudden spinning or dizziness
- Feeling like you’re tilting or falling
- Nausea or vomiting
- Unsteadiness or loss of balance
- Blurred vision during movement
These episodes of vertigo usually last a few seconds to a minute, but they can happen again and again. The good news? BPPV is highly treatable with the right physiotherapy.
How Rehab Station Helps You Overcome Vertigo
At Rehab Station, we specialize in physiotherapy for vertigo, especially BPPV. Our expert physiotherapists are trained to identify the type and cause of vertigo through detailed assessments and movement tests.
Here’s how we help:
Accurate Assessment
Our team will first evaluate your symptoms, medical history, and balance to confirm if your vertigo is caused by BPPV or another issue. We use simple head movement tests to understand which part of your inner ear is affected.
Special Treatment Techniques
For BPPV, we use a technique called the Epley Maneuver or other positional maneuvers. These gentle head and body movements help guide the loose crystals back to where they belong. Most patients feel better after just one or two sessions. Our approach is safe, quick, and doesn’t require any medicine or surgery. It’s all natural and all done through movement.
Balance Training
Vertigo can sometimes leave you feeling weak or scared to move. That’s why our physiotherapists also guide you through simple balance and eye exercises to help retrain your brain and body to work together again. Over time, this reduces dizziness and helps prevent future vertigo episodes.
Education and Support
Understanding what causes your vertigo helps you manage it better. We teach you what movements to avoid, how to change positions safely, and what to do if vertigo returns. You’ll never feel lost we’ll be with you every step of the way.

Mrs. Sunita Mehta, a 62 year old retired teacher, had been struggling with frequent episodes of vertigo for over a month. Every time she turned her head, lay down, or got out of bed, she felt as though the room was spinning. Daily tasks became difficult, and the fear of falling made her anxious and inactive. After trying medications with little relief, she visited Rehab Station, where our Vertigo specialist diagnosed her with Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) a common cause of vertigo related to displaced crystals in the inner ear. Through a detailed assessment and a gentle treatment called the Epley Maneuver, we helped her begin recovery in the very first session.
Over the next two weeks, Mrs. Mehta followed her personalized physiotherapy plan at Rehab Station, which included balance training, home care guidance, and education about managing vertigo safely. By the end of her second session, she experienced a dramatic improvement, and within a few days, her vertigo symptoms had completely disappeared. She was able to return to her normal routine with renewed confidence and without needing medication. Mrs. Mehta’s story is a clear example of how effective physiotherapy for vertigo can be when it’s guided by the right expertise. If you’re struggling with vertigo, Rehab Station is here to help you find relief naturally, safely, and quickly.
