This course presents clear clinical guidelines to distinguish peripheral versus central vestibular disorders with exam forms and flow charts. The emphasis is on the role the cerebellum plays in brain function and how to identify cerebellum dysfunction and disease. This course provides a detailed review of metabolic, autoimmune, immunological, and vascular mechanisms that promote disease of the cerebellum. This course also provides a clear understanding of cerebellum dysfunction symptoms; examination findings throughout a detailed neurological exam; and treatment modalities involving neurological rehabilitation and dietary, nutritional, and lifestyle applications.

Central Vestibular Disorders and Cerebellum Disorders with Applications – 15 hours

1. Review of central vestibular neurophysiology and anatomy
2. Differential diagnosis of central vestibulopathy
3. Treatment Applications for central vestibulopathy
4. Case studies and workshop

Dizziness, posture instability, poor balance, vertigo, and nausea are all common chief complaints in clinical practice. Many times these symptoms are the consequence of disease, dysfunction, or maladaptation of the peripheral vestibular system. This course provides a detailed review of the vestibular canals and otolithic system, as well as in-depth examination skills and flow charts to help you differentially diagnose and provide supportive therapy. The goal of the course is to provide clinicians with a step-by-step examination and treatment protocol they can use in their office immediately.
