Our Vestibular Physiotherapy Treatment
Get Back Your Balance with Our Vestibular Physiotherapy
Vestibular Physiotherapy is a specialized form of treatment designed to assess and manage conditions affecting your balance system. It focuses on improving stability, reducing dizziness, and helping you return to your normal daily activities with confidence. The treatment is based on a structured exercise-based program designed to improve how the brain & inner ear work together to maintain balance and stable vision. Additionally, our team evaluates balance in different positions and environments to identify areas of weakness and observe how patients respond to head movements, positional changes, and motion.
How Do Our Physiotherapists Help?
What to Expect During Our Vestibular Physiotherapy Session?
We begin your vestibular physiotherapy session with a detailed discussion of symptoms, including vertigo, imbalance, dizziness, unsteadiness, nausea or vomiting, blurred vision, and decreased coordination. We then review your medical history and any factors that may contribute to dizziness or balance problems. Our vestibular therapists also assess neck mobility, as the neck plays a major role in balance, and evaluate eye movements and inner ear function to understand how these systems work together. This helps identify triggers and create a customized treatment plan that may include habituation exercises, gaze stabilization exercises, and balance training. Our vestibular physiotherapy program in Winnipeg supports people with conditions like:
- Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV)
- Vestibular neuritis and labyrinthitis
- Persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD)
- Ménière’s disease
- Concussion or post-concussion symptoms
- Balance problems and risk of falls
- Motion sensitivity or visual dizziness
- General dizziness or vertigo of unknown origin
Through personalized exercises and hands-on techniques, vestibular physiotherapy can help retrain your brain and inner ear to work together more effectively. After every vestibular rehabilitation physiotherapy session, we will track your recovery. Many patients experience significant improvement in their symptoms, including reduced dizziness, better balance, and increased confidence in movement.

Client Testimonials
Bridgwater Physiotherapy (Taylor Avenue) - Winnipeg Clinical and Sports Physiotherapy 102 Google reviewsPosted on Google Patrick BouskaJuly 15, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had the opportunity to work with Braden over the past couple of months for a pinched nerve in my neck. His professional manner, caring personality, and genuine desire to get his clients back to 100% are admirable. Bridgwater is lucky to have him practicing at this location. Best of luck in your future, Braden!Posted on Google Cheryl ClaireApril 27, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thanh is the best!!! He is beyond knowledgeable and makes you feel like you’re right at home! He took so much of my pain away and set me up with the tools to keep my body healthy ! Every staff member is warm and welcoming, I will be back !!Posted on Google Marla KlassenMarch 19, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thann is prompt and with his 25 years of experience he brings knowledge and experience to treat his patients. I was fortunate to call late one afternoon and get a next morning appointment. Getting treated so quickly sped up the healing process and got me back to the court playing again in no time. I highly recommend Thann!Posted on Google J KFebruary 26, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Always so quick to get you in for all physio needs. Super knowledgeable staff. Having been a patient of Thanh's for over 20 years I would highly recommend him to anyone for injury rehab and now am taking my own kids to see him!Posted on Google Kevin HouleFebruary 10, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My tennis elbow was so dramatic it deserved its own documentary. Enter this physiotherapist: part healer, part wizard, part motivational speaker. After their treatment, my elbow is functioning at a level I’d describe as ‘factory reset.’ If you’re broken, go here. They’ll un-break you.Posted on Google Cheryl RFebruary 10, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been using Thanh’s services for over 20 years, and whether you see Thanh or another team member at Bridgwater Physiotherapy, you are in expert hands. I wouldn’t trust my own or my family’s physio care to anyone else. After being diagnosed with frozen shoulder, I initially went elsewhere and was told to “manage my expectations” and accept it as my “new normal.” That didn’t sit right with me, so I returned to Bridgwater Physiotherapy. The difference was immediate. My treatment plan was completely reworked, I was listened to and respected, and everything was clearly explained. With their expertise and personalized approach, I regained full range of motion in about half the typical recovery time. I’ve continue to use their services with other ailments to great success. The standard of care at Bridgwater Physiotherapy is exceptional. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely care about your health. You are never just another number here — their goal is to get you back to your baseline or better. I highly recommend Bridwater Physiotherapy.Posted on Google garyma19February 7, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I suffered a bad back injury. Thanh and the staff members did an excellent job helping get back to being 100 percent again. Thank you very much for taking great care of me.Posted on Google Marcela GonzálezFebruary 6, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great place and amazing service from all team members! I totally recommend Bridgwater Physiotherapy!Posted on Google Lori PaigeFebruary 6, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been attending Bridgwater Physiotherapy weekly for the past few months for a workplace shoulder rotator cuff injury, and I’ve had a great experience. I see both Braden and Megan, and they have both been excellent to work with throughout my rehab. They’re knowledgeable, supportive, and take the time to thoroughly explain and review my at-home exercises, which has made a big difference in my recovery. In my more recent sessions with Megan, we’ve combined physiotherapy with acupuncture, and I truly believe the acupuncture has been helping with pain relief. The clinic itself is centrally located in River Heights with easy parking, which is very convenient. I would highly recommend Bridgwater Physiotherapy to anyone needing professional and attentive care.Posted on Google Jim BFebruary 6, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Outstanding people and outstanding results!

What Do People Ask?
Frequently Asked Questions
We get many questions from people about our vestibular physiotherapy in Winnipeg. Some of those related questions are listed below:
The vestibular system is located in the inner ear and helps control balance, spatial orientation, and eye movements. When this system is disrupted, people may experience dizziness, vertigo, or balance difficulties.
Benefits of Vestibular rehabilitation physiotherapy helps reduce dizziness, improve balance, and prevent falls. Through specialized exercises, it retrains your brain and inner ear to work together properly. This makes your daily activities, such as walking, turning your head, or driving, feel safer and more stable.
The main symptom of a vestibular problem is dizziness, often accompanied by a spinning feeling known as vertigo. While balance issues can affect people of any age, they tend to become more common as people get older.
You may need vestibular physiotherapy if you experience dizziness or vertigo, feel unsteady or fall frequently, get motion sickness in busy environments, notice spinning when you move your head or change positions, or have lingering symptoms after a concussion.
We recommend that you wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely during exercises. If you come from work or other activities, you can bring your regular clothes and change at our vestibular physiotherapy clinic in Winnipeg if needed.
With our vestibular physiotherapy in Winnipeg, including exercises for motion sensitivity and eye-movement control, most people notice improvement within the first few weeks of starting treatment.
It is not advised to do vestibular exercises at home without guidance from a physiotherapist. If your doctor has confirmed that your dizziness is related to a vestibular problem and has approved exercises, you can try them at home while carefully avoiding movements that worsen your symptoms.
Yes, these exercises are safe for older adults. Many seniors notice a reduction in dizziness after only a few vestibular physiotherapy sessions, as the exercises help the brain adjust and compensate for balance problems.
