Clinicians, therapists, and paramedical staff involved in caring for the chronically dizzy patient will find this handbook invaluable. The authors discuss the physiologic basis for the clinical observation that vestibular compensation occurs more rapidly and is more complete if the patient begins exercising as soon as possible after a vestibular lesion. They provide a background in vestibular physiology and pathophysiology and include several chapters on psychological and behavioral therapies, which are important but often neglected components of the management of the dizzy patient.
