The benefits of rotary chair testing

Many people experience some form of dizziness or imbalance during their lifetime. As there are a wide variety of symptoms, as well as duration of symptoms, it is extremely important for the balance clinic to have the right assessment tools to meet the needs of adult and pediatric patients with dizziness.

Rotary chair testing has the advantage of allowing us to evaluate the vestibular system over a wide range of frequencies. This provides clinicians with a more comprehensive insight into the vestibular system by encompassing physiological stimuli in which normal head movements occur.

Rotary chair testing is the gold standard for confirmation of suspected bilateral vestibular hypofunction but can also aid in the diagnosis of unilateral peripheral vestibular loss due to its high sensitivity at 0.01 Hz.
