The Center for Balance and Dizziness

WE CAN ALL BREATH A SIGH OF RELIEF! SANTA CAME TO THE CENTER FOR BALANCE FOR HIS YEARLY DIZZINESS/RISK OF FALL ASSESSMENT BEFORE THE BIG DAY; HE'S GOOD TO GO! ARE YOU? centerforbalancecincinnati.com

@stable_program So true, you also have to evaluate the somatosensory, visual, and vestibular systems while performing functional activities to develop the appropriate treatment program.

Balance rehab should NOT be about "how long can I hold this tandem or single leg stand" but rather "can I complete this functional task while maintaining or recovering my balance" Plenty of people spend time doing "balance exercises" that have no impact on their movement goals

@BethDarnall Don’t forget dizziness

Invalidating patient symptoms that have no clear cause is damaging. Many people with chronic pain have a story of having pain invalidated by a medical provider at some point. All pain is real.

@rcpointdujour Make sure your policy and procedures are thorough Medicare can come in and ask for them

Going out on your own is scary AF. You don't know if money will come. You make your schedule flexible. You do a lot of self-marketing in direct and indirect ways. You have to pay the premiums on your own insurance. You don't work, you don't eat. But the FREEDOM!!! I love it. 🥺

@TheBalanceNarve We test for bppv on any patient with c/o dizziness even if the day they don’t see movement in environment

Severe Parkinson patient (70+) complains of unsteadiness and a feeling that his legs cannot bear him. Reason? BPPV posterior canal. Please test geriatric pop for bppv, also the neurological ones. Bppv will most certainly make their lives more unsteady.....

@thedizzydoc Can’t tell u how many time patients have told me that. How do we educate the docs? Another Ipsy but goody it normal part of aging

Unknown and bizarre symptoms are too often dismissed as psychiatric. I saw a patient with Alice in Wonderland syndrome from vestibular migraine who was told it was just psychological for over a year.

@ElgazzarBLVD @WestEndStadium @Enquirer So cool
