Advanced Balance Assessment Tools

Our FYZICAL Balance Assessment

As a physical therapist with over 29 years of experience specializing in vestibular and balance rehabilitation, we understand that no two patients experience dizziness, imbalance, or fall risk in the same way. That’s why every plan of care we create is completely personalized, guided by objective test results and your unique functional goals.
At FYZICAL Bon Air, we use several advanced tools during your evaluation to uncover the root cause of your imbalance and design the safest, most effective treatment path forward:

How Inner Ear Balance Therapy Supports Gait Instability Rehab

At FYZICAL Bon Air, we specialize in treating the deep connection between balance control and gait stability. Our advanced approach to inner ear balance therapy and fall prevention therapy helps patients improve how they walk (their “gait”) while restoring their confidence in daily movement.

Balance and gait depend on the seamless coordination of three primary body systems:
  • Neurological System - This includes your brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves. It manages reflexes, coordination, and muscle control—critical for both balance and walking safety.
  • Musculoskeletal System - Composed of muscles, joints, and bones, this system supports your body’s structure and enables smooth, controlled movement.
  • Sensory Systems - Your eyes, inner ear (vestibular system), and proprioceptive sensors work together to keep you oriented, upright, and adaptive to your environment.
When any of these systems are impaired, whether by stroke, peripheral neuropathy, arthritis, or vestibular conditions like Ménière’s disease, you may experience unsteadiness, poor coordination, or increased fall risk.

That’s where FYZICAL’s evidence-based solutions come in:
  • Functional balance testing (CTSIB, BodiTrak)
  • Vestibular rehabilitation for BPPV and inner ear disorders
  • Visual tracking and head movement coordination
  • Strengthening and balance retraining
Our goal? Whether you’re recovering from vertigo, a stroke, or just feeling off-balance, we’ll help you walk safely, confidently, and independently, reducing fall risk and regaining freedom of movement through expert-led, one-on-one therapy.
