How We Treat Vertigo and Balance Disorders
Thorough Assessment
The first step in your treatment plan is a thorough neurological evaluation. Dr. Ioannidis will assess your specific symptoms, medical history, and any underlying conditions that may contribute to your balance disorder. This may include testing your visual, auditory, and vestibular systems to ensure we have a complete understanding of your condition.
Customized Treatment Plan
Based on the results of your assessment, we will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs. Our goal is to provide the most effective therapies that address the cause of your vertigo or balance issues, rather than just masking the symptoms.
Chiropractic Neurology Techniques
We use advanced chiropractic neurology techniques to optimize the communication between your brain and body. These non-invasive treatments may include:
- Vestibular Rehabilitation: A series of exercises designed to retrain your brain and nervous system to improve balance, reduce dizziness, and restore normal function.
- Proprioceptive Therapy: Focuses on improving your body’s ability to sense its position in space, which is essential for maintaining balance.
- Vision Therapy: Simple yet effective eye exercises to regain strength and stability in the visual system.
Lifestyle and Nutritional Support
In addition to hands-on treatments, we provide advice on nutrition and lifestyle changes that can support your recovery. Certain dietary habits, hydration levels, and physical activities may play a role in managing vertigo and balance disorders.
Ongoing Monitoring and Adjustments
We monitor your progress throughout the treatment process to ensure the best outcomes. Regular check-ins and adjustments to your treatment plan may be necessary as you progress.

Connor Young2025-02-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Spiro is incredible. Prior to finding out about Dr. Spiro I had gone to see multiple physiotherapists, chiropractors, massage therapists, and acupuncturists over the course of 7 months and saw no improvements with my injury. Even with all the therapy I was receiving, I was still restricted to my bed for most of the day. I could not look at a screen for more than a couple of minutes, be in a group of more than 3, or even do something as simple as putting dishes away. After my first appointment with Dr. Spiro I was able to start going on screens again and within a week a I was watching movies, my energy level drastically increased, and I was able to start interacting in social settings again. Within 6 months I was back to part time work and within a year I was working full time again. Even though my condition has drastically improved, Dr. Spiro continues to investigate different avenues that will get me back to 100%. Dr. Spiro made it so that I could function again in my daily life. lula field2025-01-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr Spiro is truly incredible, he has helped me get back into my feet with my struggle with vertigo. He listens, is patient and knows exactly what to do and how to proceed with care and treatment. I thank him so incredibly much for all of his care and support throughout my journey with vertigo. I highly recommend him to all my family and friends. Anamaría cazar2025-01-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Ioannidis has the knowledge, the wisdom, the determination, the insight, and the perseverance to heal brain injuries. Following a near fatal automobile accident in foreign country, I am grateful that the emergency room doctors kept me alive. Over the five day hospital stay I understood that they were not capable of healing my brain nor my body. When the brain bleed stopped, I was discharged, though I was barely able to walk or see or eat or function. My family needed me, so I managed to seek out practitioners that would assist in my healing. Slowly I regained some strength and abilities. With diligent implementation of exercises, diets, supplements, techniques, protocols, and various medical tools and devices, I slowly gained ground. Sometimes the gains would plateau and sometimes the progress would be lost. Though I did not expect healing to be a straight line, the setbacks were disheartening given all the effort I was making. Upon returning to London, I searched for a functional neurologist as I was told this was the best next step. Mentally exhausted, and expecting to have to travel to a larger city or foreign country, I was stunned and delighted to find that there is a functional neurologist in London, on Oxford street! I made my way there to see if I would have any hope as a patient, and for the first time in the years since the accident, my brain felt safe. Not just hopeful, as with previous doctors, but safe. I have now been seeing Dr Ioannidis for over a month. I appreciate his pacing without hurry, while at the same time making more gains in weeks than I have in years. I wish there were words to thank him for his work (which feels like miracles). Ineffable appreciation, Anne Wendy Maurice2024-12-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After spending over 2 years with a local brain injury clinic and being told to just accept my new limitations, I found Dr. Ioannidis and was quite literally changed after 2 appointments. If you want a doctor who listens to you, is fully engaged in every appointment and is as excited about you making progress as you are, then Dr. I is your guy. He is truly passionate about helping people, he knows every single part of the brain and how its malfunctioning presents in symptoms, and he’s honest about how his work can or cannot help. It’s so refreshing to have a doctor who truly cares. colleen Burnette2024-12-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr Spiro has helped me recover after my concussion. I am so thankful for having someone like him in London. Stu Herron2024-12-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Super knowledgeable on anything related to the brain and body. Easy to talk and listens to you. Recommended several people and everyone says the same. If you have a concussion or post concussion symptoms he's the guy to see. Michelle Sanders2024-11-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Spiro not only helps your balance issues but your overall health. He is kind and easy to talk to. I have never been to a doctor who truly loves his job as much as he does and it shows in each session you have with him.
