Balance problems Report

Normal balance is dependent upon the integration of the visual, auditory (inner ear) and somatosensory systems. When one or more of these systems are not functioning well, individuals may experience episodes of spinning, light-headedness, trouble focusing their eyes and/or poor balance or falls.
