i applaud the therapist for condensing difficult information into one hour. there are so many avenues to go with this topic that just figuring out how to narrow the focus is a challenge. i've attended several weekend workshops on dizziness and have been treating that for about 18 years so i appreciated this as a refresher big picture podcast. the areas that were incongruent to me was the learning objective stating "examine the effect of neck injuries\/pain…" that learning objective led me to believe there would be more verbal and written references to peer reviewed articles\/books\/manuals\/lectures demonstrating the effect of postconcussive syndrome and links or mention of specific screens and assessments to denote functional changes in a pre-\/post concussive state to immediately use in the clinic. dr. frizzle did bring up specific areas to ask the client regarding their pre-and post function. how that could look different in an assessment for pt versus an ot would be helpful. delving into that topic would be more in line with the learning objectives, but unfortunately, less time would be able to be spent on the anatomy and treatment if the podcast episode is still kept to an hour. i really appreciated the handouts for the different movement treatments and anatomy. most of them are easy to display and show to a client. the graphics are relatively poor for page 15 and 18 and that could be revised for professionalism. one change i saw was in all the literature and classes i've attended, the assessment has been labeled the dix-hallpike test instead of what was written as the hallpike dix, which he stated as hallpike(s) dix. that could be confusing for new clinicians or clients when looking up the appropriate name. in addition to the helpful graphics of the different maneuvers, it would be exceptionally helpful to have recommended links for videos of these maneuvers from a therapist as highly trained as he is. there are so many poorly made videos online that to have a professional opinion on what looks accurate would be an exceptional way to top off a podcast when there is no in person manual time to train and limited time to talk. thank you for doing this podcast and i appreciate the information. again, it is on more of a basic level, which is very appealing to clinicians newer to this topic and could be reflected in the objective. one of the best points that came away with is the idea that there are receptors in the muscular skeletal structures of cervical spine that can influence the sensation of dizziness.
