About Us - Vestibular Therapy Associates

Overview

VTA supports people experiencing dizziness, vertigo, unsteadiness, motion sensitivity, visual disturbance, or falls, including symptoms following illness, trauma, or brain injury. The service is particularly suited to clients whose vestibular problems are under-recognised in routine care and are limiting day-to-day function, rehabilitation progress, or return to work.

VTA also works extensively with insurance providers, case managers, solicitors, and vocational rehabilitation/RTW specialists when vestibular symptoms influence recovery, work capacity, and decisions about rehabilitation input.

What We Do

Comprehensive vestibular and balance assessment for adults and children, combining detailed clinical history, oculomotor and vestibular testing, and functional balance and gait evaluation. Evidence-based vestibular rehabilitation programmes improve gaze stability, balance, mobility, and confidence.

We manage BPPV, vestibular neuritis, labyrinthitis, unilateral/bilateral vestibular hypofunction, vestibular migraine, PPPD, and ABI/TBI-related dizziness.

How We Work

Flexible, accessible care through clinic-based, virtual, and home-based pathways. Structured, progressive, and goal-driven rehabilitation with regular review and adjustment to match each client's tolerance and stage of recovery.

Care is delivered using a patient-centred, goal-oriented model emphasising clear explanations, collaborative decision-making, and supported self-management.

Service Delivery

Home & Community Visits

Minimises symptom-provoking travel. Associates reach most parts of England within 2-3 hours. Therapy progresses to outdoor, community, and fitness-focused rehab as tolerance improves.

Virtual Clinics

Remote consultations and therapy across the UK and internationally. Reduces travel burden, improves accessibility, and maintains continuity for clients unable to attend frequent in-person sessions.

Treatment Approach

Patient-centred, goal-oriented model. Education on symptom mechanisms, pacing, and graded exposure. Progress reviewed regularly with exercises adjusted toward higher-level balance and work demands.

Vestibular Screening Service

A structured screening service to help funders decide when full assessment is required. Focused review of symptoms, risk factors, and functional impact with a concise report supporting go/no-go decisions. Screening fee offset against subsequent full assessment.

Partnerships

VTA works collaboratively with case managers, insurers, medico-legal teams, and clinical referrers. Clear communication and structured reporting support timely, informed decisions about rehabilitation input and funding.

What Our Patients Say

"Samy was the first medical professional to believe me and listen to me about my very real symptoms of very poor balance, coordination and feeling unwell. He noticed abnormal eye movements called oscillopsia which I hadn't known about. I truly believe without seeing Samy first, I would still be undiagnosed."
