Your advanced course in dizziness and vestibular therapy
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common form of peripheral vertigo and at the same time one of the most underestimated. While typical cases are usually recognized quickly and treated successfully, rare variants, atypical nystagmus, and persistent courses regularly present major challenges for therapists
Misdiagnoses and ineffective treatment approaches are unfortunately not uncommon in these patients – resulting in persistent symptoms and increasing uncertainty. This makes a deeper understanding of the pathophysiology, as well as a systematic and differentiated approach to diagnosis and therapy, all the more important.
This two-day advanced course is aimed at therapists with experience in vestibular rehabilitation who wish to expand their expertise in BPPV and specifically enhance their diagnostic confidence as well as their therapeutic skills in complex cases.
The lectures by Dr. Andrea Castellucci are delivered live via video conference. The content of his lectures is further reinforced on site by Firat Kesgin through brief comprehension checks and practical exercises.
