The connections between the two vestibular nuclei permit vestibular compensation after unilateral lesions. The interactions between the vestibular and the visual and proprioceptive system can support vestibular compensation. Our physical training program for the treatment of vertigo is based on these mechanisms. The training consists of fixation exercises, smooth pursuit and motor learning by proprioceptive cognition. The results are very convincing.

D014722	Vestibule, Labyrinth	An oval, bony chamber of the inner ear, part of the bony labyrinth. It is continuous with bony COCHLEA anteriorly, and SEMICIRCULAR CANALS posteriorly. The vestibule contains two communicating sacs (utricle and saccule) of the balancing apparatus. The oval window on its lateral wall is occupied by the base of the STAPES of the MIDDLE EAR.
