Vestibular and post-concussion rehab are specialized areas of physical therapy that focus on treating patients who have experienced problems with their balance or have suffered a concussion.

In vestibular rehab, the physical therapist works with patients who have problems with their inner ear, which is responsible for balance and spatial orientation. Common conditions that can benefit from vestibular rehab include benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), vestibular neuritis, and labyrinthitis.

The goal of vestibular rehab is to improve the patient's balance, reduce dizziness and vertigo, and improve their ability to perform activities of daily living. The therapist may use a variety of techniques to achieve these goals, including exercises to improve balance and coordination, repositioning maneuvers to treat BPPV, and habituation exercises to reduce symptoms of motion sickness.

Post-concussion rehab is a specialized area of physical therapy that focuses on helping patients recover from a concussion or mild traumatic brain injury. Concussions can cause a range of symptoms, including headaches, dizziness, balance problems, and cognitive deficits.

The physical therapist will work with the patient to address these symptoms and help them return to their normal activities as soon as possible. Treatment may include exercises to improve balance and coordination, cognitive retraining to improve memory and attention, and vision therapy to improve visual tracking and coordination.

Overall, vestibular and post-concussion rehab are important areas of physical therapy that can help patients recover from balance problems and traumatic brain injuries. With the help of a skilled physical therapist, patients can achieve improved balance, reduced symptoms of dizziness and vertigo, and a better quality of life.
