What Is a Balance Disorder?

A balance disorder is a condition that affects your ability to maintain stability while standing, walking, changing positions, or performing daily activities.

Your balance system relies on communication between the inner ear, eyes, muscles, joints, and brain. When one or more of these systems are affected, symptoms such as dizziness, instability, and increased fall risk can occur.

Balance disorders can affect individuals of all ages but are particularly common among older adults and individuals recovering from neurological or vestibular conditions.

Without treatment, balance problems can lead to reduced mobility, fear of movement, and increased injury risk.
