What is Vestibular Physical Therapy?
Vestibular Physical Therapy (Vestibular Rehabilitation - VRT) is a highly specialized branch of physical therapy that targets problems within the vestibular system, which plays a crucial role in maintaining balance, spatial orientation, and eye movement control. At KC Connect PT in Overland Park, Kansas, we offer expert vestibular rehabilitation to help you overcome dizziness, vertigo, and other related issues.

-
Vertigo: A spinning sensation that makes you feel like your surroundings are moving.

Dizziness: A general feeling of unsteadiness or lightheadedness.
