Summary
This study tests whether virtual reality exercises can help people with balance problems caused by a weak inner ear on one side. 48 adults will be split into three groups: one doing standard balance exercises, one using VR, and one doing both. The goal is to see if VR can reduce dizziness and improve daily life.
