A systematic review across five databases and additional relevant sources after 1985 identified 70 pertinent studies, including meta-analyses, systematic reviews, randomized controlled trials, and observational and case series evidence. Strong evidence supports vestibular physical therapy for unilateral and bilateral impairment with functional limitations. Strong evidence also discourages voluntary saccadic or smooth-pursuit eye movements as therapy components, while moderate evidence supports targeted exercise options aligned with patient preferences.","Vestibular Rehabilitation for Peripheral Vestibular Hypofunction: An Evidence-based Clinical Practice Guideline  \nFrom the American Physical Therapy Association Neurology Section  \nAuthors: Courtney D.
