The clinical problem

Your patient can't keep the world still when they move their head

Gaze instability is one of the most missed drivers of dizziness after concussion, and a hallmark of vestibular injury. Blurring, oscillopsia, that "I can't scan a grocery shelf" feeling. The good news is the VOR is trainable, once you know how to prescribe, assess, and progress it.

What we'll cover

One hour, from mechanism to clinic

No fluff and no protocols to memorize. Just the reasoning that makes gaze stabilization make sense, so you can tailor it to the patient in front of you.

01

What VOR x1 exercises are

And how they drive adaptation through retinal slip.

02

Core prescription principles

Target, speed, range, and dosing that actually change gain.

03

How to assess gaze stability

Head impulse, dynamic visual acuity, VOMS, and head shaking.

04

How to progress without guessing

Speed, background, position, surface, and beyond.

05

How to know it's working

Monitoring, retesting, and reading symptom response.

06

Common pitfalls

And the clinical reasoning to steer around them.

Who it's for

For anyone who treats dizzy patients

This is for you if you want to feel confident the moment gaze instability shows up in your assessment. Whether you're new to vestibular work or brushing up, you'll leave with reasoning you can use on your very next dizzy patient.
