Vestibular balance problems Report

Balance requires the integration of visual, vestibular (in inner ear), and somatosensory (sensations from the skin, muscles, tendons and joints). When one or more of these systems are not functioning well, individuals may experience spinning, light-headedness, trouble focusing and/or falls.
