Expert care for balance & neurological disorders in Leander

Our vestibular and neurological rehab begins with detailed testing of your inner ear, eye movements, balance, and gait to pinpoint what is driving your symptoms. From there we use targeted repositioning maneuvers, gaze and balance training, and graded exertion to reduce symptoms, lower fall risk, and help you return to work, school, sport, and daily life safely.
