The video below is included with the *NEW* Dizziness Differential Diagnosis Algorithm Marketing Package – a unique way to market yourself while educating referring providers in your area.  Think of this Dizziness Differential Diagnosis Algorithm as a visual roadmap that you can use to educate and guide referring providers in the clinical decision-making process. It highlights key symptoms to create a […]

As frequently stated by neuro-optometrist and 360 Neuro Health faculty member, Dr. DeAnn Fitzgerald: It’s a brain thang! Our nervous system controls everything we do. When it works well, you work well…your patients/clients work well. When there is dysfunction in the nervous system, however, there is typically dysfunction in the ability to carry out daily activities […]

The vestibular ocular reflex (VOR) acts to maintain stable vision during head motion. This is successfully accomplished through precise compensatory eye movement to head movement along three axes via neural pathways more commonly known as the angular and translational VOR. The angular VOR (a-VOR) is mediated by the semicircular canals (SCCs) and is the primary […]

Answer: “Getting back to the question of anti-saccades, that is one way to actually legitimately check out how is that frontal lobe working. And I think as we talked about how can we then drive that frontal lobe in order to be able to act more appropriately. Well, one way to check it would be […]

Answer: “So if they’re over focalized and you don’t know that, and you have them start to track, I’m going to see if I can get a closeup of my eye movements. When they start to track, a normal tracking will appear like this, where the spatial process literally anticipates the change and focalization is […]

Answer: “If you’ve got the money to spare, and it’s a lot… so I get that. So it’s not highly accessible to anybody, but the beauty of the computerized test is the specificity because the person is wearing an IMU. So the first thing that’s going to happen is you’re going to establish their static […]

We all agree that identifying the cause (or causes) of someone’s dizziness is critical for designing and customizing their care plan. Equally as critical is leaving the patient’s diagnosis “at the door.” We don’t want a diagnosis to define a patient. Instead, we want their story, their recovery, their behavior to define the process. There […]

Answer: “So concussions or brain injuries can actually trigger migraines and vestibular migraines. And so I suspect that people who are more prone to vestibular migraine are more prone to getting migraine if you have the genetics for it. Taking a good hit to the head or being in contact sports can trigger the migraines […]

Answer: “So we definitely use VOR, VOR cancellation, ocular motor exercises post head trauma. It’s hard for me to say that would be contra-indicative when there’s a VOR deficit. But I get it. I get the conversation because if I’m looking straight ahead and doing VOR, what is my concern about that exercise? It is […]
