The Vestibular System, which communicates with the central nervous system and the musculoskeletal system, can be complicated and remains mysterious to many. However recent advances have offered new understanding and provided new methodologies in the treatment of balance disorders.
The most common diagnosis for vertigo and dizziness is a condition known as BPPV and can most often be treated within 3 to 5 office visits with a qualified physician or vestibular physical therapist. More extensive therapies may be necessary to treat other vestibular (inner ear) conditions.
Our physical therapy center focuses on the patient as a whole. Developing strategies and programs that enable patients to both maximize and utilize their strengths while simultaneously strengthening their weak areas.
Balance Therapy restores a patient’s sense of stability and awareness of their limitations. Using proven therapy techniques, our therapists work one on one with patients to achieve goals set not only by physicians but by the patients themselves. Certified in the field of vestibular rehabilitation, we stay on the cutting edge of all new and proven therapy options available to patients today.
We welcome you to visit our clinic and see for yourself the magic that takes place everyday.
At Balance Diagnostic & Therapy we pride ourselves in our ability to stay focused on the end result, our patients! Our neurological and occupational therapists work hand and hand to improve the quality of life for our brain injured and stroke patients. Therapy is hard work and all of our therapists have a unique understanding of what each patient has gone through just to get to this point.

Our clinic is one of the few out patient clinics offering Bioness H200 for patient use. This is a neuro prosthetic device that helps deduce spasticity and return function to effected arms and hands post stroke. Here at Balance and Neuro PT, we also offer anodyne therapy for the treatment of peripheral neuropathies. (Commonly described as tingly, numb or painful hands and feet) Accompanied with traditional gait and balance therapy we have found anodyne therapy to be successful in the reduction of pain while restoring sensation in most of our patients.
