This book describes in detail rehabilitation protocols specific for those disorders that most frequently induce vertigo and dizziness. In particular, it highlights exercise protocols that will enable the best result to be obtained within the shortest time and with the most enduring therapeutic effect. Drawing on their personal experience, the authors describe physical exercises that will prove effective in delivering vestibular rehabilitation all over the world, regardless of the rehabilitation tools available. The presented protocols cover vertigo in a wide range of conditions. Helpful information is also provided on the clinical approach to vertigo and dizziness, vestibular rehabilitation from Cawthorne-Cooksey onward and the role of life-style counseling. By documenting effective functional and therapeutic approaches, Vertigo Rehabilitation Protocols will be an invaluable resource for neurologists, ENT physicians, orthopedists and rehabilitation specialists.
This book is based on the proceedings and discussions of a closed workshop held in Santa Margherita Ligure in January 1995. It was an original scientific experience: no public was admitted. For three days the main contributors of this book remained closed in a wonderful ho tel. In the same hotel Guglielmo Marconi, in the 30s, performed his first experiments with radio waves. The hotel was therefore an ideal place, al though the problems we discussed were not so "revolutionary" like Marco ni's experiments. In these days round tables, superrescricted meetings on specific topics and presentation of selected papers, only for very few persons, were per formed. We discussed about definition, ethiopathogenesis, physiopathology, clinical and instrumental evaluations, medico-legal and therapeutic aspects of whiplash injuries. All the attendants tried to report and discuss personal experiences and ideas in order to compare them. All the discussions were especially aimed to prepare the chapters you will read in this book. We returned to our homes very tired, but very rich in our minds. We really hope that after reading this book you will be as tired as rich. We are very grateful to Pharmacia, who supported the closed workshop and the preparation of this publication.
Spending part of his free time of over twenty-five years, in search of further certificates and historical documents on his own Dynasty in historical archives, historical libraries, parishes and municipalities, unifying and spreading part of the considerable amount of collected notes, the author has drawn up this work whose purpose is to be a historical compendium of the birth and worldwide evolution of the noble and ancient Busi Dynasty.Far from being complete, it also aims at being a spur for younger generations in order not to forget that their future is possible thanks to their past.
This work presents a new original approach to diagnosis and rehabilitative treatment of vertigo and dizziness based on an innovative model of the vestibular system. It includes a detailed introduction to the MCS method, and a treatment program that involves mechanic, cybernetic, and synergetic aspects. Additionally, it provides a brief outline of the modern neurophysiological concepts behind the methodology.
