At Agility Physiotherapy & Pilates in Ascot and Bulimba, our team includes physiotherapists with special interest and experience in treating dizziness, vertigo, and balance problems caused by vestibular dysfunction.

The Vestibular system, located in the inner ear, plays a key role in balance, coordination, and spatial awareness. It works closely with the eyes and brain to help you stay upright and move confidently.

Common causes of dysfunction include BPPV, labyrinthitis, vestibular neuritis, concussion, and age-related decline.
