OVERVIEW

ABOUT VERTIGO

Vertigo makes life feel off balance. You stand still, but the world moves. It can happen when you roll in bed, look up, or stand too quickly. The spinning passes, but the fear of it sticks around.

At Get Modern Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine of Sun Lakes, AZ, we help people steady their balance again. Vertigo often comes from changes in the inner ear, neck tension, or past injury. Our therapy retrains your body so motion feels normal again.

BOOKING APPOINTMENTS

You can call us or book online. We’ll go over what happens at your first session and what to bring. Comfortable clothes are best. Bring notes from your doctor or ENT if you have them. The first visit is simple. We talk about your symptoms and what makes them start.

SCHEDULE

REQUEST AN APPOINTMENT

Most start with one or two visits each week. As dizziness eases, we space them out. Some people feel better in a few weeks, others take a little longer. We follow your pace, not a fixed timeline.

DIAGNOSE

EXAM & IMAGING

We start by listening. When did this begin? What makes it worse? Then we test how your balance reacts to certain motions. Sometimes we check the neck and shoulders too, since tension there can add to dizziness. Once we know what’s behind it, we explain your results and your plan in plain language.

TREATMENTS

CUSTOM TREATMENT PROGRAM

Treatment depends on the cause. If inner ear crystals are out of place, we use gentle movements to reset them. If balance control is the problem, we do small drills that help your eyes and muscles work together again. We keep it light, controlled, and steady. You’ll have a few home moves to keep progress going.

FOLLOW UP

WE CALL TO CHECK IN

Each visit tracks change. How often do symptoms happen? How strong are they now? As you improve, we add light balance work that prepares you for real life with walking, turning, even driving again. The goal is simple: move without fear of spinning.

I had an excellent experience at this facility. I didn’t know what to expect, and my arm/shoulder was really hurting. The therapists, the assistants, and the receptionist were all so friendly and put me at ease. Believe it or not, I actually enjoyed going to PT! They were all very professional and knowledgeable, and worked so well together as a team. My arm is back to normal again and I’m so thankful I found them.

What Are You Experiencing?

Most people don’t walk in knowing the exact treatment. They just know something hurts. That’s enough. Use the short form to tell us what’s going on, even if it’s just “my back feels tight” or “this pain won’t leave me alone.” Once we get it, we’ll give you a call and talk through what might be happening and how we can help.

  LOW  HIGH  

SEVERE PAIN

If the pain is so strong you can’t think straight, don’t wait. Call 911 or get to the hospital. Your safety comes first. Once that’s handled, we’ll be here to focus on the next steps with you.

MODERATE PAIN / DISCOMFORT

This kind of pain doesn’t always stop your day, but it makes everything harder. Some describe it as sharp, others say it’s dull and always there. However you explain it, just write it down. We’ll use that to start figuring out what’s going on.

MINOR PAINS & ACHES

Little aches may seem easy to ignore, but they add up. A stiff shoulder in the morning, sore feet after work, or that one spot that acts up every now and then, they matter too. Tell us what you’ve noticed, and we’ll help you get ahead of it.

Quick Diagnosis Form

Answering Your Questions

Will therapy make me dizzy?

Maybe a little at first. That’s part of helping your system adjust. The movements are slow and easy, and we stop the moment it feels too strong. Each visit teaches your body how to handle motion better.

How long does it take to feel normal again?

Most notice change within two to four visits. Others need a few weeks. It depends on what caused the vertigo and how your body adapts. The key is to stay consistent with the plan and practice at home.

Is it safe to move when I’m dizzy?

Yes, in most cases. Gentle motion helps the system relearn balance. We’ll show you how to move safely without triggering strong symptoms.

Can stress make it worse?

It can. Stress tightens muscles and slows your reflexes. We’ll teach small routines that calm the body so balance work feels easier.

What helps at home?

Move slowly. Avoid quick turns when you wake up or stand. Stay hydrated and rest when needed. Do your home drills daily. Those few minutes matter more than they seem.

MODERN PHYSICAL THERAPY & SPORTS MEDICINE
CEO

"When an athlete gets injured, a team of doctors and therapists evaluates them, orders imaging, and decides the best path forward. If surgery is needed, they go straight to surgery; if not, they get condition-specific physical therapy and targeted injections to speed healing. This is the same process pro athletes use to get back on the field quickly—and at Modern, you can access that same level of care for the same cost as any other physical therapy clinic."   - Josh Adams
