When it comes to finding a way to fix balance problems, physical therapy is ALWAYS the best option. Besides being totally holistic and drug free, physical therapy with the right physical therapist gets to the root of the problem. Once the root is found, the problem can then be solved through an individual physical therapy program, so that patients can go back to a normal, daily life. In addition, patients leave physical therapy with a home exercise program that will help keep symptoms away even after the completion of physical therapy. This way, you will know how to handle symptoms if they were to come back!
