Visual-Vestibular Integration: Optokinetics in Rehabilitation

Learn the physiology of visual-vestibular integration for assessment and rehabilitation of the nervous system. 

Visual-Vestibular Integration: Optokinetics in Rehabilitation

Presented by: Dr. Jeremy Schmoe

Your visual system relays information to your nervous system, along with vestibular inputs, proprioceptive inputs, and more, to orientate oneself in this world. Symptoms such as visually induced dizziness, PPPD, and visual motion intolerance are common for patients suffering from visual-vestibular integration problems. Unfortunately, not enough clinicians are trained well enough to help these patients that are suffering.  In this hands-on module, learn the neuroscience, exam skills and treatment approach of Dr. Jeremy Schmoe to help those with visual-vestibular integration issues.

Who is this class for?

Visual-Vestibular Integration: Optokinetics in Rehabilitation will appeal to any healthcare practitioner wanting to learn an in-the-trenches approach to solving visual-vestibular integration issues in their patienst.

The healthcare professionals that can attend this program are MD, DC, DO, PT, OT, ATC, LMT, ND, LAc, PA, NP, and CA (If accompanied by DC).  

The Treatment Approach Taught in Visual-Vestibular Integration: Optokinetics in Rehabilitation

Dr. Schmoe will be giving attending scholars insight into his treatment approaches which involve a combination of active, passive, and brain-based rehabilitative strategies. 

Why Learn About Visual-Vestbular Integration?

Patients feeling dizzy? Unsteady? Motion sensitive? Eye movement issues? Learn how to assess and rehabilitate these patients.

Learn physical and neurological examination skills that you can use right away to help your patients more effectively.  Learn about the integration between the visual and vestibular systems and how to leverage those systems in rehab.

He manages patients from all over the country as well as international. He has treated thousands of patients with head injuries, vertigo, dysautonomia, dizziness, movement disorders, neuro-degenerative and developmental disorders. He treats patients of all ages. He enjoys seeing the most complex cases Integrating neuro-rehab, manual therapy, lab work and nutrition. He has completed extensive post-graduate training in functional neurology, neuroimmunology and functional medicine.

He is a Diplomate of the American Chiropractic Neurology Board DACNB, Fellow of the American College of Functional Neurology and was the valedictorian of the 2015 FABBIR Carrick Institute TBI program. #carricktrained. He graduated from NWHSU in 2011 with his Doctorate of Chiropractic. He graduated from MNSU Mankato in 2007 with his Exercise Science Degree. He has completed thousands of hours of post graduate neurological training in vestibular rehab, autonomic disorders, complex chronic pain, developmental disorders, neurochemistry, immunology and various manual therapy techniques.
