Vertigo Treatment and Vestibular Rehab in Point Loma, San Diego CA

The vestibular system plays a crucial role in determining our spatial orientation and the direction of our movement. When this system isn't operating at its best, it can lead to experiences of dizziness, spinning (referred to as vertigo), a sense of imbalance, and a feeling of mental haziness. By engaging in vestibular rehabilitation, many of these symptoms can be significantly improved or even completely resolved. This specialized approach involves evidence-backed exercises tailored to your individual needs. These exercises work to retrain the vestibular system, ensuring accurate processing of sensory information, adapting effectively to triggers that provoke your symptoms, and harmoniously integrating with other sensory functions. It's important to note that feeling dizzy is not a normal state, and I'm here to provide assistance and support.

Physical Therapy in Point Loma, San Diego CA

We specialize in treating complex conditions and reigniting optimism. If you find yourself constrained by pain then you've come to the perfect place. 

Our focus on care revolves entirely around your well-being and facilitating your complete return to active living. We understand the challenges that injuries present and the hardship that comes with enduring pain. Yet, we also recognize that the true weight of an injury lies in the limitations it imposes on your ability to embrace life to its fullest extent.

Some of the most common conditions we treat are:

  • Low Back Pain: Low back pain is a prevalent condition that can result from a variety of causes, including muscle strains, herniated discs, or sprains. It often manifests as discomfort or sharp pain in the lower part of the spine and can limit a person's ability to perform daily activities, work, or engage in physical exercise.

  • Neck Pain: a common condition resulting from prolonged sitting or activities that strain the muscles and joints of the neck, leading to discomfort, tension, and restricted range of motion.

  • Ankle Sprains:These occur when the ligaments around the ankle are stretched or torn, often due to a sudden twist or roll of the foot.

  • ACL Tears: The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in the knee can be torn during activities that involve sudden stops or changes in direction.

  • Rotator Cuff Tears: The rotator cuff in the shoulder can be injured, often from repetitive overhead motions or trauma.

  • Frozen Shoulder: This condition leads to stiffness and limited motion in the shoulder joint, often resulting from inflammation and tightening of the joint capsule.

  • Plantar Fasciitis: Characterized by heel pain, this condition involves inflammation of the tissue connecting the heel bone to the toes.

  • Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis): Overuse of the forearm muscles and tendons can lead to pain and inflammation on the outer part of the elbow.

  • Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS): characterized by pain around or behind the kneecap, with treatment focusing on strengthening exercises, stretching, joint mobilization, biomechanical analysis, and education to improve knee function and alleviate discomfort.

  • Hip Bursitis/ Trochanteric Bursitis: characterized by pain and inflammation around the outer part of the hip, often caused by repetitive movements or prolonged pressure on the bursa (fluid-filled sac) near the greater trochanter of the femur bone.

  • Hip Osteoarthritis and Knee Osteoarthritis: degenerative joint condition resulting in the gradual breakdown of cartilage within the joint, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.
