Wii Fit vs. Vestibular Rehab for Vertigo Balance
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study compares two types of balance training—Wii Fit exercises and standard vestibular rehab—to see which helps people with BPPV (a common cause of vertigo). If you have moderate BPPV, you may join to help improve your balance.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with a specific type of vertigo called BPPV.
- You are between 30 and 60 years old.
- You can stand and walk without help from another person.
- Your vertigo symptoms are moderate, measured by a special questionnaire (score 36-42).
- You have not had any ear surgeries, seizures, a pacemaker, a recent head injury, or other balance disorders.

This trial tests a new rehabilitation approach for people with PPPD, a long-lasting dizziness/imbalance condition. It may help improve daily functioning and reduce dizziness symptoms through targeted rehab.
This study looks at how well a home-based virtual reality (VR) vestibular therapy works for people with ongoing (chronic) balance problems, and whether results differ based on where the problem is in the inner ear. It may help your care team understand who benefits most from VR therapy.
This study tests if adding special head exercises (Brandt-Daroff) to two different repositioning maneuvers (Epley or Semont-Plus) helps reduce dizziness and improve quality of life in people with a common inner ear condition called BPPV.
This trial tests whether a structured “vestibular perceptual learning” program can improve balance and your body’s balance signals. It may help people who have balance or dizziness challenges by measuring changes after training.
This study tests whether a virtual reality balance-training program improves how well people control their posture and respond to sudden balance challenges. You would do standing balance tests and training sessions with head and weight-shift movements.
This trial compares virtual reality exercises to standard balance therapy for people with chronic dizziness caused by inner ear problems. It aims to find out if the newer virtual reality approach works better at reducing dizziness and improving balance.
