Effects of Circuit Training on Vertigo, Oscillopsia and Dizziness in Patients With Vestibular Hypo-function
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Experimental and Active Comparator for Vestibular Disorder. Completed, enrolled 14 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
In this research, the main purpose is to determine the effects of Circuit Training consisting of Structured Vestibular rehabilitation Program under the strict supervision of Neuro-Therapist versus Medicines and General (simple) Rehabilitation (only Home-based) in community-dwelling population of people diagnosed with Vestibular disorders. A booklet consisting of general instructions, simple vestibular exercises which are to be made a part of daily routine, specific diet plan and specific precautions to be taken by patients reporting with vertigo, oscillopsia and dizziness will also be provided to all the patients. This is a community service addition, added so that everyone in the society can have easy access to the instructions, will be cost effective, and will reduce their visits to the therapist.
