Understanding Vestibular Agnosia: A Comprehensive Overview by Wendy Webb Schoenewald, PT, OCS, WWS Physical Therapy and Vestibular Rehabilitation, Doylestown, PA.

Vestibular agnosia is a rare and intriguing neurological condition that affects the brain’s ability to process vestibular information, which is critical for balance and spatial orientation. Understanding vestibular agnosia is crucial for medical professionals, researchers, and individuals affected by it, despite its rarity. This blog aims to provide a detailed overview of vestibular agnosia, including its symptoms, causes, diagnosis, and treatment options.

What is Vestibular Agnosia?

Vestibular agnosia is a neurological disorder characterized by the inability to recognize or process vestibular stimuli. The vestibular system in the inner ear plays a fundamental role in maintaining balance, spatial orientation, and coordinating movement. Individuals with vestibular agnosia have intact vestibular function but are unable to consciously perceive or interpret vestibular information, resulting in significant difficulties in everyday life.

Symptoms of Vestibular Agnosia
The symptoms of vestibular agnosia can vary widely but often include:

Balance Issues: Difficulty maintaining balance, especially in low-visibility conditions.
Spatial Disorientation: Challenges in navigating through space or identifying one’s body position in relation to the environment.
Motion Perception Problems: Inability to perceive or respond appropriately to movement, such as feeling unstable when walking or turning.
Vertigo: Sensations of spinning or dizziness without an apparent cause.
Coordination Problems: Difficulty coordinating movements, leading to clumsiness or frequent falls.

Biodex Balance Testing
Use of the Biodex Balance System at WWS Physical Therapy and Vestibular Rehabilitation, Doylestown, PA.

The Biodex Balance System is a medical device that measures balance and control in various conditions. It also measures and trains a person’s stability limits, or how far they can move their center of mass while maintaining balance. The patient stands on the Biodex force plate, which allows the computer to gather information about a patient’s balance, while a screen provides visual feedback and grades their performance. This machine quantifies the amount of sway during static and dynamic standing balance tests, and tracks progress over time. We also use it in training, as it provides patients with good visual and tactile feedback on their postural control and reactive balance movements. Contact wwspt.com or (215) 489-3234 for an evaluation.

Vestibular Migraine by Dr. Amanda Nguyen, PT, DPT, WWS Physical Therapy and Vestibular Rehabilitation, Doylestown, PA.

One type of dizziness caused by migraines is called “vestibular migraines.” During a migraine episode, a person can experience vestibular symptoms, such as vertigo, dizziness, nausea, and sometimes vomiting. Episodes can occur with other migraine symptoms, such as light or sound sensitivity, visual aura, headaches, or dizziness, which may be the only symptom. Symptoms can vary in intensity and last from 5 minutes to 72 hours. At WWS Physical Therapy and Vestibular Rehabilitation, , we can differentiate between possible vestibular diagnoses based on a patient’s current symptoms and history and a battery of vestibular tests to determine what is causing their dizziness. If we determine that vestibular migraines are your issue, there are exercises we can do to address motion sensitivity, dizziness, and balance. More importantly, for migraine management, we can educate you on how to manage your symptoms, identify triggers of the migraines, and prevent future episodes.

WWS Physical Therapy and Vestibular Rehabilitation will be closed on Monday, September 1st, in observance of the Labor Day holiday. Open Tuesday, September 2, 2025, at regular business hours.

You ask, What is Labor Day, and why do we celebrate it?

For many of us, Labor Day marks the end of summer and the beginning of Fall and the school year. But beyond the opportunity for indulging in barbecues and poolside gatherings, Labor Day holds significant historical weight.

Labor Day is our country's most explicit way of recognizing the contributions of workers in the United States and the history of labor in the U.S.since the 1800s.

Enjoy a and wherever you may be.
