Vestibular rehab: Vertigo and balance - a podcast by Joa Rivas: Health advocate and yoga teacher

We had the pleasure to have Physiotherapist Dave Ross in our last episode, chatting about how he started his career as a kinesiologist and physiotherapist and the main back pain complications this past year. But who is Dr. Dave Ross? Dave is a #physiotherapist and a graduate of Queen’s and McMaster Universities. Today we had the pressure to talk about the vestibular system Learn the effect of vestibular stimulation on eye-hand coordination. Understand its role in motor control and global health. Vestibular dysfunction is most commonly caused by head injury, aging, and viral infection. Other illnesses, as well as genetic and environmental factors, may also cause or contribute to vestibular disorders. Disequilibrium: Unsteadiness, imbalance, or loss of equilibrium; often accompanied by spatial disorientation. The goals of Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy (VRT) are: 1) enhancing gaze stability, 2) enhancing postural stability 3) improving vertigo 4) improving daily living activities ( like standing up and getting up from bed) Find Dave Ross at: @daverossphysio on Instagram https://vestibular.org/ The vision is a world where vestibular disorders are widely understood, rapidly diagnosed, and effectively treated so patients can restore balance and regain life. The Vestibular Disorders Association (VeDA) strives to create an inclusive community where everyone feels valued, represented, and respected.
