Understanding Balance Disorders

Balance is essential to daily life. When it falters, even simple tasks can become challenging. Join us for an insightful discussion with Anthony Baldachino, PT, on managing balance disorders and improving stability.

At AOSMI, we specialize in diagnosing and treating balance disorders, helping you regain confidence and mobility through personalized, cutting-edge treatment plans.

What Are Balance Disorders?

Balance disorders occur when the body’s natural equilibrium is disrupted. They can result from inner ear dysfunction, neurological conditions, or injuries. Common symptoms include dizziness, unsteadiness, and frequent falls. Early recognition of these signs is key to effective management.

Common Balance Disorders

Concussions: Head injuries can cause dizziness, coordination challenges, and instability. Tailored physical therapy plays a vital role in recovery.

Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV): Sudden, brief episodes of dizziness triggered by head movements.

Meniere’s Disease: A condition marked by fluctuating hearing loss, tinnitus, and episodes of vertigo.

Vestibular Neuritis: Inflammation of the vestibular nerve, leading to intense vertigo and imbalance.

Understanding these conditions helps our team develop targeted treatment plans tailored to your unique symptoms.
