Join KFPL and Vestibular Physiotherapist Dougal Bale to learn about the vestibular health!

Buried deep in the skull and producing no recognizable sensation, the vestibular system is easily overlooked.  However, these complex organs of the inner ear, contribute to a wide range of critical tasks from balance to vision to cognition.  This talk will introduce that basic anatomy and function of the vestibular system and the common conditions that can produce dizziness, vertigo, visual disturbance, and imbalance.

This is the first installment of KFPL's Health Compass series.
