Vestibular rehab is a specialized form of physiotherapy used to treat vestibular or inner ear disorders. It can be beneficial for anyone experiencing vertigo, dizziness, and/or balance or vision issues!

Here at Prospect, your vestibular rehab assessment will begin by taking a thorough history of your symptoms and medical history, neurological testing, and objective tests using our NEW infrared goggles. We are so excited by the arrival of these goggles as they allow us to see eye movement that is often suppressed in room light, making our ability to interpret results and develop an appropriate treatment plan that much more accurate.

Following the assessment, treatment will involve maneuvers and progressive exercises designed to reduce your symptoms. Vestibular rehab can be very effective in treating the following conditions:
- BPPV
- Meniere’s
- Vestibular neuritis
- Vestibular migraines
- Cervicogenic dizziness
- Post Concussion Syndrome
- POTS

If you have been suffering with vertigo or dizziness, click the link in the bio to book in for an assessment!

Swipe through to see how much you know about osteoporosis!

If you or someone you know has low bone density, osteopenia, or osteoporosis, book in for an assessment and we’ll get started on an appropriate exercise program!

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐬?

Osteoporosis is a bone disease caused by the body losing too much bone, not making enough bone, or both. Bones become weak and can easily break.

Although it can happen at any age, it most commonly affects older adults, especially women.

Exercise is important for individuals who have osteoporosis, but there are certain positions that should be avoided due to the increased risk of fractures. Swipe through to see modifications of common movements and exercises that will benefit individuals with low bone mass or osteoporosis.

Avoid:
- rounded postures
- deep twists
- deep hip stretches
- overpressure during stretches

While feeding your baby can be a precious time where bonding occurs, it can also be a literal 𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗰𝗸. 🤕

It takes a surprising amount of effort to hold a baby for a prolonged period, which often leads to compensations and the formation of bad habits. Anyone else guilty of slouching down into a comfy couch, twisting your body or crossing your legs, and/or staring at your beautiful baby the whole time you feed?!

🙋‍♀️I AM (and so is my husband🙋‍♂️)!

✅ To help with some of the aches and pains, try to:
- put a pillow behind you so your neck and back are supported
- recline so your back is supported and so the weight of the baby is pressed into your body rather than you having to lift up to support through your arms
- put the baby on a nursing pillow for added support (helps to elevate the baby to you if you’re breastfeeding!)
- switch sides each time you feed

If you are still having pains after making these modifications, stay tuned for exercises later in the week and book in for a physio session at www.prospectphysiotherapy.janeapp.com
