                  <p>Vestibular rehabilitation is a specific kind of physical therapy aimed at addressing issues related to the vestibular system, which governs balance, spatial orientation, and ocular movements. This treatment is often advised for persons experiencing dizziness, vertigo, imbalance, or other symptoms associated with vestibular diseases.
<br>
<br>

Age-related alterations might affect the vestibular system and impair an individual's everyday functioning. As the population increases, vestibular rehabilitation services must be accessible to those in need.

The phrase dizziness encompasses a range of feelings, including light-headedness, swaying, and confusion. Vertigo is a frequently used phrase that refers to a particular kind of dizziness, characterized by the perception of movement in the surrounding environment.

		 The vestibular system's function is to facilitate balance, spatial orientation, and stability during motion. The sensory system is situated in the inner ear, particularly inside the vestibular organs: the utricle, saccule, and three semicircular canals. The primary functions and objectives of the vestibular system encompass:

<h5 class="mt-4">BPPV</h5>
<p>The most frequent reason for vertigo resulting from a peripheral vestibular dysfunction is BPPV. It is more prevalent in older adults and affects 20–30% of all patients with a history of vertigo. More precisely, it is a biomechanical issue whereby one or more semicircular canals are activated improperly, causing nystagmus, vertigo, and recurrent nausea. The issue is caused by otoconia that have floated to one or more of the three semicircular canals after dislocating from the utricle.
