What is a Vestibular Function Evaluation?
A painless, non-invasive diagnostic evaluation through which we can determine if your balance, fall risk, vestibular or other associated conditions are due to a problem located in your central (brain) or peripheral nervous systems (balance system in your ear.) Depending on the nature of your condition and other symptoms present, a specific diagnosis may be obtained. The test results are of significant value to your physician, as well as the physical and occupational therapists who may be treating you for your balance and vestibular disorders. The information obtained will greatly improve the clinician’s ability to implement a program specifically targeted to your deficits.
