A powerful example of resilience in the face of a vestibular disorder 💪After struggling with vestibular neuritis and debilitating vertigo, Nicolás Jarry’s return is nothing short of inspiring. His story is a reminder that recovery is possible even when it feels out of reach. If you or someone you know is experiencing vertigo, dizziness or imbalance, you're not alone and we are here to help!

Nicolas Jarry has been to hell and back in the last year but on Friday on a sun-kissed court in south-west London the towering Chilean put the dark days behind him to reach the fourth round of Wimbledon for the first time in his career.

Feeling the World Spin? You might have BPPV!
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is one of the most common causes of vertigo! It causes a sudden spinning sensation when you move your head a certain way. It happens when tiny crystals (otoconia) in your inner ear become dislodged and move into the wrong canals.
👂Symptoms can include:
✅ Sudden dizziness when lying down, rolling in bed, or looking up
✅ Nausea or imbalance
✅ Brief episodes of vertigo lasting seconds to minutes
The good news?
BPPV is highly treatable with specialised physiotherapy techniques such as canalith repositioning maneuvers!
💡 If you're experiencing these symptoms, book in with one of our vestibular physiotherapists today. Call us on 33424378 or email us admin@equilibriumrehab.com.au.

🧠June is Migraine Awareness Month!
Let’s talk about something many people haven’t heard of - Vestibular Migraines. This type of migraine doesn’t always come with a headache. Instead, it causes dizzy spells, vertigo, and balance issues all tied to the brain's vestibular (balance) system. It’s more common than you think! 1 in 4 people with migraine may experience these symptoms.
Knowledge is power! Raising awareness helps more people find the right support and care. You are not alone. If you experience these symptoms alongside migraines, consult with a vestibular physiotherapist. We can help you 1) Understand your symptoms 2) Develop coping strategies 3) Improve your quality of life. Contact us at 3342 4378 for a comprehensive assessment today🙂

If you're dealing with dizziness, vertigo, or balance issues, you're not alone. Vestibular disorders can have a major impact on your everyday life. The good news is that vestibular rehabilitation (VR) provides a specialized, exercise-based method to help ease these symptoms. VR works by maximizing your vestibular function and training your brain to rely on other senses, such as vision and body awareness, to compensate for any weaknesses in your vestibular system. While this compensation can happen gradually, VR can speed up the recovery process for those who are still struggling. Our approach is tailored to your specific needs, aiming to restore your balance, boost your confidence, and help you get back to your daily routine. Don’t let dizziness hold you back! Discover how vestibular rehabilitation can help you feel your best again! Contact us at 3342 4378 for a comprehensive assessment today🙂

Good balance is often taken for granted!

Think about walking down the street – seems easy, right? But there's a whole lot going on behind the scenes! Your eyes (sight), your inner ear (which helps you sense movement), and proprioception (sensors of position and movement in the feet and legs) all work together to keep you upright. This team sends signals to your brain, which then tells your muscles how to move to keep you steady. Injuries, illnesses, even some medications can throw this amazing team off. This can make you feel unsteady, dizzy, or even afraid to move.

If you're struggling with balance, it's important to find out what's causing the problem so you can get back to feeling confident and independent. Struggling with balance? Contact us at 3342 4378 for a comprehensive assessment.
