Making Vestibular Visible
Vestibular disorders are invisible from the outside. Even though you look like nothing is wrong, your whole world could be spinning. That is why we are opening a discussion about vestibular dysfunction. By talking about vestibular disorders, what they feel like, how they are diagnosed and treated, and strategies for coping, we seek to shine a light on the vestibular experience and make vestibular visible. This podcast shares recordings of the VeDA Video Education Series. Hosts Drs. Kathleen Stross and Danielle Tolman interview experts in the vestibular healthcare and wellness field, providing a free and interactive resource for patients. These conversations are streamed live via Facebook, Youtube, and LinkedIn, then made available here in audio format. This podcast is a production of the Vestibular Disorders Association (VeDA).
