47. Dizziness with Dr. Matthew Fothergilll (April 2021) - Concussion, Athletes, & Physical Therapy
Today's guest Dr. Matthew Fothergill, is a physical therapist who specializes in long-term lifestyle planning for patients who have experienced single or multiple sub-concussive hits. He also works as a personal health consultant and advocates for head injury awareness. Our conversation revolves around dizziness and the variety of ways to explain the feeling. We focus on the importance of the use of words for both patients and medical professionals. Later, we discuss the difficulty of distrusting the medical establishment, especially for older athletes, and how you can empower yourself as a patient, so join us today for a highly informative discussion!
This episode originally aired April 29, 2021! Due to so many messages about coping with dizziness this episode seemed perfect for this week!
