Registration is open for the 4th Annual Iowa Vestibular Symposium 2027 to be held January 16-17, 2027 at the Olsen Center at Des Moines University Medicine and Health Sciences in Des Moines, IA.
The Iowa Vestibular Symposium is a continuing education event dedicated to advancing the recognition, evaluation, and treatment of vestibular and complex neurological conditions.
The symposium brings together:
• Vestibular Physical Therapists
• Neurologic Rehabilitation Specialists
• Audiologists
• Occupational Therapists
• Medical Providers involved in dizziness care
This interdisciplinary symposium fosters collaboration among healthcare professionals to enhance understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of central and peripheral vestibular disorders. By bringing together experts in physical therapy, speech therapy, mental health therapy, pain management, and otolaryngology, the conference aims to advance interdisciplinary care for patients dealing with conditions like concussions, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, vestibular migraines, and stroke. Through comprehensive education, hands-on experience, and networking, this conference equips attendees with the tools to provide improved, patient-centered care.
All healthcare professionals working with individuals with central or peripheral vestibular disorders are invited to attend. This includes providers who are seeing patients who complain of dizziness, imbalance, and vertigo and are looking for improved referral options and for providers who regularly treat these individuals. Advanced education on vestibular conditions is not a prerequisite.
