Colleen Sleik – The Complete Vestibular Rehab Certificate Course

Their worlds are spinning.

Unable to walk, stand, or even sit up — your clients are hit by wave after wave of nausea, dizziness, vertigo, and anxiety… and relief seems impossible.

Life with vestibular and balance disorders is incredibly challenging.

And no one should have to live like this. Yet, individuals live with these symptoms for years — or even decades.

Now, we’re not going to sugar coat it: vestibular disorders can be difficult to treat! While physical therapy protocols help many individuals recover, few professionals are trained to truly make a difference.

But you don’t have to be frustrated by vestibular disorders anymore because you feel ill-equipped to help…

Help your patients get quick wins as you unlock the secrets to treating the dizzy patient!

Your course instructors bring decades of experience to show you exactly how to treat the root causes of a variety of disorders:

    • Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV)

 

    • Vestibular migraine

 

  • Post-concussion syndrome, and so much more…

 

Whether you work in hospitals, rehab centers, home health settings, or skilled nursing facilities, grow your confidence as you gain a deeper understanding of assessment, treatment techniques, patient-specific modifications, and differential diagnosis skills.

You hold the key to filling your rehab toolbox with research-backed vestibular disorder evaluations and interventions. Now it’s up to you to use it.
