Vestibular Neuro-Rehabilitation for the Spine-Scoliosis
Vestibular Neuro-Rehabilitation for the Spine-Scoliosis
CE Hours: 12
The spine is not merely a pile of bones stacked upon each other to form the central axis of our skeleton. It is a highly complex system, demonstrating both input from and output to the central nervous system and its various sub-systems.
Description
Scoliosis is much more complex than simple abnormalities of spinal curvature. In this course, you will learn how to manage Scoliosis using the Vestibular Neuro-Rehabilitative Approach.
What You Will Learn
- Neurophysiology of Spinal Control
- Neurophysiology of Scoliosis
- Primitive Reflexes
- Proprioception and Sensory Discrimination
- Vestibular and Oculomotor Assessment and Management
- Vestibular Integration
- Neuromodulation
- Complete Integrative Management
Objectives
- Learn the latest evidence-based clinical neuroscience that is emerging in the causes and management for idiopathic scoliosis
- Learn how to perform a multi-modal, brain-based assessment, including proprioceptive, vestibular, cerebellar, and cortical tests
- Consider how primitive and postural reflexes influence early neuromusculoskeletal development
- Learn advanced techniques and protocols for managing idiopathic scoliosis and poor posture that consider spine, TMJ, eye movements, vestibular, sensorimotor integration, and advanced neuromodulation therapiesulation modalities to manage pain and improve quality of life

Instructor
Dr Carlo Rinaudo
Dr Carlo Rinaudo is a registered Chiropractor with post-graduate training in Functional Neuro-Rehabilitation (Functional Neurology). Dr Rinaudo is the clinic director of a multidisciplined clinic, focused on helping people with dizziness and balance related conditions. He is currently undertaking a PhD in Vestibular (balance) therapy at University of New South Wales and Neuroscience Research Australia (www.NeuRA.edu.au), working alongside leading researchers and Neurologist in the field.His training in Australia and overseas with Prof Ted Carrick and at the Cerebrum Health Centers (www.cerebrum.com), has led him to become a sought after practitioner when it comes to helping people suffering from concussions, whiplash, mild and acquired brain injuries, balance and vertigo disorders like BPPV, vestibular migraines and Mal De Debarquement syndrome.He is a sought after lecturer and speaker at national and local events on these topics, as well as a previous sessional lecturer and tutor with Macquarie University. Carlo graduated from Sydney University with Honours in Medical Science prior to undertaking Masters of Chiropractic at Macquarie University.
