If you have dizziness or vertigo, a vestibular PT visit is usually very structured and specific, not a random workout.
Here’s what often happens:
Your story and symptom patterns
When it happens, what triggers it, how long it lasts, what makes it better or worse.
Safety screen
Checking for red flags and making sure you are in the right place for care.
Targeted testing
Eyes, balance, walking, and head movement tests to pinpoint which system is involved.
Treatment the same day
This may include positional techniques (if appropriate), gaze stability work, balance drills, and gentle exposure exercises.
Home plan
Simple, specific exercises plus clear do’s and don’ts so you feel confident between visits.
Goal: fewer episodes, faster recovery, and steadier walking in real life.
