Roadmap to Success with Vestibular Rehabilitation – Colleen Sleik

This recording will help you translate the latest recommendations of the APTA’s Neurology Section into evidence-based practice.

Discover the four key components of successful vestibular rehabilitation programming and explore assessment tools, as well as clinical applications of habituation, gaze stabilization, gait, balance, and endurance training.

Throughout the session, we will examine case studies demonstrating common findings as well as problem-solving approaches for the challenging patient. Demonstration and progression of gaze stabilization exercises will be covered more closely in lab.

1. Discuss action statements brought forth from the research & guidelines in practice of vestibular rehabilitation for peripheral vestibular hypofunction
2. Define the 4 components of a vestibular rehabilitation program
3. Review case studies & develop an appropriate vestibular rehabilitation program based on findings in alignment with clinical practice guidelines
