GENERAL BALANCE TEST
General balance tests involve a physical exam. Our staff will guide you through a series of positions that will check for a balance disorder. If a disorder presents during general tests, more specific diagnostics will usually be recommended.
HEARING TEST
Hearing loss or damage is usually linked to a balance disorder. In order to check for this causal factor, our team will perform one or more hearing tests. These tests are non-invasive and can provide our staff with immediate feedback on your condition.
ELECTRONYSTAGMOGRAPHY (ENG)
An ENG records the movement of your eyes. These movements play a role in balance and vestibular function. Irregularities with involuntary eye movements can lead to a balance disorder.
ENG records these movements with tiny electrodes. The electrodes are positioned just beneath, beside, and above your eyes. This test can take up to 90 minutes, depending on the specifics of your condition.
