Vestibular management of clients with BPPV, vestibular hypofunction, post head trauma, cervicogenic dizziness, non-vestibular dizziness and more as well as the role of emerging technologies such as virtual reality, sensory substitution devices, and vestibular implants are included in this evidence based and updated course. This course written by vestibular neurorehabilitation specialists and MDs, will be useful to any rehab therapist who treats patients with vestibular dysfunction or non-vestibular dizziness. (Note: Though this course is primarily written by PTs for PTs, OTs will benefit greatly from this comprehensive in depth vestibular course as it also relates directly to OT issues.)
