Book Description
Clinicians, therapists, and paramedical staff involved in caring for the chronically dizzy patient will find this handbook invaluable. The authors discuss the physiologic basis for the clinical observation that vestibular compensation occurs more rapidly and is more complete if the patient begins exercising as soon as possible after a vestibular lesion. They provide a background in vestibular physiology and pathophysiology and include several chapters on psychological and behavioral therapies, which are important but often neglected components of the management of the dizzy patient.

Simplified Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy
Author: Byung In Han
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 981159869X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
This book describes a streamlined version of vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT), an exercise-based approach that is of proven value in the treatment of vertigo and dizziness. This simplified form of VRT is intended for use in primary healthcare facilities. As Dr. Han had practiced martial art and ballet, he could pick out necessary movements from those art forms. The selected movements were used to make the VRT exercises. The opening part describes the indications for and the principles of VRT and provides general information on key exercises. The role of VRT in patients with central dizziness is then discussed. The remainder of the book offers clear, precise guidance on the exercises used in simplified VRT, covering general exercises, gaze stability exercises, postural stability exercises, and habituation exercises. The text is supported by numerous photographs that will help both clinicians and patients to implement the exercises correctly and effectively.
