Current Advances in Balance Diagnosis and Treatment: Part 2

Description

Clinicians often struggle to bridge the gap between complex productivity standards and the seamless integration of evidence-based practice into balance rehabilitation. This course provides a workable, efficient methodology for evaluating and treating individuals with balance dysfunction by utilizing motor skill acquisition (MSA) principles as a primary framework. Participants will explore the critical role of feedback, specifically external focus, and learn why addressing alignment and vestibular "mis-calibrations" like BPPV is a prerequisite for effective training. By applying these concepts to diverse clinical cases—ranging from peripheral neuropathy to Parkinson’s disease—providers will gain the reasoning skills necessary to move beyond generic interventions toward prescriptive, impairment-driven treatment plans.

Instructor

Learning Objectives

• Integrate motor skill acquisition concepts into balance prescriptions for individuals with balance dysfunction
• Coordinate clinical reasoning strategies to select appropriate interventions tailored to specific patient impairments
• Formulate an evidence-based treatment plan based on a clinically relevant balance diagnosis to improve functional daily activities
• Assess case scenarios for patients with balance dysfunction to determine appropriate clinical interventions.
