Foundations of Vestibular Rehabilitation:

Interventions for Vestibular Disorders (VF-0011)


Description

This comprehensive course explores evidence-based interventions for managing dizziness and imbalance associated with peripheral and central vestibular dysfunction. This course explores the key principles of vestibular rehabilitation, including neuroplasticity, compensation, and sensory reweighting in recovery from vestibular impairment. Participants will learn how to apply evidence-based treatment theories—such as adaptation to improve gaze stability, habituation to reduce motion sensitivity, and substitution to enhance visual and somatosensory input.  Clinicians will also learn how to modify exercises for patients with neck pain, anxiety, or visual needs, and follow current guidelines for exercise frequency, duration, and recovery timelines across common vestibular conditions. By the end of the course, attendees will be prepared to confidently tailor vestibular rehabilitation programs to varioius patient’s diagnosis.

This is the final course in a series aimed at building on foundational vestibular knowledge. While this course can be a stand alone course, It is recommended to continue on with our subsequent vestibular curriculum.
