Neurologic physical therapists specialize in treating individuals who are facing difficulty with functional movements. This may include movements such as walking, getting on and off various surfaces, climbing stairs, accessing public transport, etc. Individuals may also experience problems with balance, leading to falls. Physical therapists help individuals reduce the risk of falling by improving their balance.

How can we help
Vestibular rehabilitation specialists help address both primary and secondary problems caused by vestibular disorders. The vestibular organ is an important equilibrium or balance organ present in the inner ear of every individual.
Physical therapists trained in vestibular rehabilitation treatment use exercise-based programs to reduce vertigo, dizziness, gaze instability (blurriness), imbalance, and falls.
Individuals can also suffer vertigo due to crystals in the inner ear falling out of place. This causes the individual to experience the sensation of room spinning when they change their head position, like when rolling over in bed or moving and changing positions. This is called BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo.)
Therapists at Asara Physical Therapy and Balance Clinic use infrared video goggles to evaluate the accurate position of crystals to treat patients effectively.

How can we help
Pediatric physical therapy helps children reach their full potential and makes them functionally independent, promoting lifelong, active, and meaningful participation at home, in school, and in their community. Physical therapists use their expertise to facilitate gross motor development and function. Our clients are generally referred to physical therapy when the family or the doctor notices that they are exhibiting delays in reaching milestones. This may be due to a medical condition or deficits in age-appropriate gross motor skills (e.g., walking, running, jumping, and ability to use stairs) or loss of skill following an injury that affects his or her function. As physical therapists, we incorporate many skilled intervention approaches and therapeutic activities to improve soft tissue mobilization and maximize their mobility. These approaches work to increase the level of functional positioning, strength, range of motion, balance, coordination, and gait.
