Does the low-salt diet really work?

For many patients, yes — reducing sodium below 2000 mg/day cuts attack frequency in a substantial minority.

Will my hearing come back?

Early on, hearing often fluctuates. Over years, some permanent hearing loss usually accumulates. Hearing-aid support may be needed.

Is surgery an option?

For severe refractory cases — intratympanic injections, endolymphatic sac decompression or labyrinthectomy. Most patients don't need surgery.

Do I need a doctor's referral to start physiotherapy for Meniere's Disease?

No — physiotherapists in India are primary-contact clinicians, so you can self-refer for meniere's disease directly. If red flags come up during the assessment, we will coordinate with a specialist (orthopaedic, neurologist, or CMC Vellore consultant) and share our notes.

Is physiotherapy for Meniere's Disease covered under insurance in India?

Physiotherapy for meniere's disease is covered by most major Indian health insurance plans when prescribed by a doctor or as part of hospitalisation and post-operative care. We provide GST invoices, detailed treatment notes, and doctor-referable reports so you can file cashless or reimbursement claims with Star Health, HDFC ERGO, Niva Bupa, ICICI Lombard and TPAs.

How much does physiotherapy for Meniere's Disease cost in Vellore?

Home visits carry a small travel add-on based on distance. Special discounts are available for senior citizens, students, army veterans, and BPL card holders — please ask when you book.

Is dry needling / IFT / ultrasound safe for Meniere's Disease?

Dry needling, IFT, TENS and therapeutic ultrasound are safe adjuncts for meniere's disease when performed by a trained physiotherapist and combined with active exercise. They are best used to unlock movement or reduce pain in the first 1–2 weeks, then tapered as your active rehabilitation takes over.

What is the best physiotherapy treatment for Meniere's Disease?

Acute presentations may resolve in as few as 4 sessions, while chronic or post-surgical cases can need 12–20. After your first 45-minute assessment we give a written estimate so you can plan financially and mentally.
