Abstract
Background: Damage to one ear causes severe dizziness with imbalance and difficulty in focusing, this condition is known as vestibulopathy. Adaptation treatment targets at VOR (Vestibulo ocular reflex) and VSR which May occur with as little as 1-2 mins. The aim of the present study is to determine the effect of vestibular adaptation exercise in vestibulopathy. To check improvement in patient after giving the vestibular adaptation exercises in vestibulopathy and also to check whether there are significant effects of vestibular adaptation exercise in vestibulopathy. Methodology: 30 subjects fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be allowed to participate in the study. Knowledge regarding the disease condition was given to the patient. Explanation about the study procedure was given to the patient written consent form, assessment Performa and DHI scale was filled by the investigator 30 patient were divided into two group, namely control group and study group. In control group no exercises were given and were just observed for improvement. While in study group caw thorne Cooksey exercise was given. At the end of duration again VAS (Visual Analog Scale) and DHI (Dizziness Handicap Inventory) was taken to determine whether there is effect of vestibular exercise in such patient. Results: In control group no significant difference was found whereas in the exercise group significant difference was found after the vestibular rehabilitation exercise protocol. Conclusion(s): This study has shown that patient with vestibulopathy improves in VAS and DHI by vestibular adaptation exercise. Keywords:
