What Our Forest Hills Patients Say About Us

“Definitely the best physical therapy. My wife and I had a car accident and went to different therapy places, but Determination Physical Therapy has really helped us improve…”

Sebastian G.

“I have been coming here for about 4 years on and off and have been receiving the best care possible. Yakov is wonderful and caring and so is the staff. On days that I’m in the most pain they always do as much as they can do and to add to that he even takes the time to call me at home to check on my condition. ”

COMMUNITY FOCUS

How Balance Therapy Works

At Determination Physical Therapy, we’re dedicated to offering a personalized approach to back pain relief, focusing on restoring movement, reducing pain, and preventing future injuries. Our process includes a detailed assessment, individualized treatment plans, hands-on therapy, and ongoing support to ensure you achieve long-term success.

Comprehensive Assessment

Your session begins with a detailed evaluation to identify the root causes of your balance challenges, such as weakness, vestibular disorders, or postural imbalance.

Personalized Treatment Plan

Our therapists design a customized therapy plan targeting stability, coordination, and functional movement patterns.

Hands-On and Exercise Therapy

We use gait training, strengthening exercises, and hands-on manual therapy to help improve balance, reduce fall risk, and restore safe movement.

Education and Home Strategies

Patients receive home exercises, safety techniques, and self-management strategies to maintain improvements between sessions.

Common Balance Issues We Treat

Dizziness and Vertigo

Vestibular disorders often cause dizziness, vertigo, and a sense of imbalance due to inner ear or vestibular system problems. Our balance therapy works hand-in-hand with vestibular therapy in Forest Hills to retrain your system, improve coordination, and restore proper balance responses.

Fall Risk in Older Adults

Age-related muscle weakness, joint limitations, or neurological decline can increase the risk of falls in older adults. We provide targeted exercises and gait training to improve stability, confidence, and safe mobility.

Post-Surgical or Injury-Related Instability

After surgery or injury, many patients experience weakness and poor coordination that affect their balance. Our therapists create personalized programs to rebuild strength, restore movement control, and reduce the risk of re-injury.

Neurological Conditions Affecting Balance

Conditions such as stroke, Parkinson’s disease, or neuropathy can disrupt the body’s ability to maintain balance. Through specialized therapy, we help patients enhance motor control, improve stability, and maximize independence.

Vestibular Disorders

Vestibular disorders affect the inner ear and can cause vertigo, dizziness, and unsteadiness. Our vestibular and balance therapy programs help retrain the body’s balance system and reduce disruptive symptoms.

Insurance and Financing

We accept most major insurance plans and handle Workers’ Compensation and No-Fault cases. Before beginning therapy, our team verifies your benefits and explains any out-of-pocket costs clearly.
