Videonystagmography (VNG) testing is a diagnostic tool that analyzes a patient’s eye movements to evaluate the function of the inner ear and central nervous system. By using specialized goggles equipped with cameras, this test captures eye movements in response to various stimuli, allowing healthcare providers to detect both structural and functional problems within the nervous system.
Analyzing a patient’s eye movements provides valuable insights into the functioning of different areas of the brain. VNG testing allows us to detect both structural and functional issues within the nervous system. Whether you are experiencing symptoms such as vertigo, chronic pain, anxiety, dysautonomia, or other related conditions, eye movement analysis can reveal important information about how various systems in the body are interconnected. This detailed assessment aids healthcare providers in developing personalized treatment plans tailored to address your unique needs, ultimately guiding you toward better health and improved quality of life.
The C3 Logix test is a comprehensive concussion screening tool developed by Cleveland Clinic that assesses various aspects of cognitive function, including reaction time, memory, processing speed, and other cognitive skills. This innovative assessment consists of a series of engaging tasks that provide insights into how well individuals can process information and respond to different stimuli, creating a dynamic testing environment.
Cognitive assessments such as C3 Logix are invaluable for all patients, not just those who have experienced a concussion. They help identify cognitive deficits that may impact daily activities and overall performance, providing a clear picture of your cognitive health. By understanding these cognitive processes, healthcare providers can develop targeted treatment plans tailored to each patient’s unique needs, ensuring a personalized approach to care that promotes recovery and enhancement of cognitive abilities.
Whether you are recovering from an injury or seeking to boost your mental performance, the C3 Logix test can play a vital role in supporting your journey toward optimal health and well-being, empowering you with the tools and insights necessary to thrive in your daily life.
As part of your initial evaluation, our doctors perform an assessment of how your nervous, cardiac, and pulmonary systems respond to changes in body position relative to gravity. During this test, we record heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation in both arms while you are lying down, seated, and standing.
This assessment is important because your autonomic nervous system is responsible for constantly regulating functions such as heart rate and blood pressure, adjusting them as your body transitions through daily activities. By analyzing your responses in different positions, we gain valuable insight into how well your autonomic system is functioning.
When this system does not adapt properly, it can contribute to a wide range of symptoms, including pain, dizziness, balance difficulties, and vertigo. Understanding these responses allows us to design treatment plans that specifically target and improve these essential regulatory functions.
In our practice, we utilize the Clinical Test of Sensory Interaction and Balance (CTSIB) to conduct an advanced assessment of your balance abilities. This innovative testing method allows us to evaluate how effectively your body utilizes information from your visual, vestibular, and proprioceptive systems to maintain stability. During the CTSIB, you will be guided through various positions and scenarios that mimic real-life conditions, helping us identify any specific balance challenges you may face. This detailed analysis is particularly beneficial for addressing issues such as dizziness, unsteadiness, and balance disorders that can arise from conditions like concussions, vestibular dysfunction, or neurological disorders. By pinpointing the underlying causes of your balance issues, we can develop a tailored treatment plan that addresses your unique needs. With our advanced balance testing, we are dedicated to helping you regain confidence in your movements and enhance your overall well-being, ultimately leading to a healthier and more active life.
After the diagnostic testing, you will review your current concerns, past medical experiences, and relevant family or social history with your doctor. This discussion helps fill in any gaps from your intake paperwork and gives us a deeper understanding of your unique health journey.
From there, we move into a detailed orthopedic, neurological, and visceral examination. Depending on your concerns, this may include assessing reflexes, muscle tone, coordination, cranial nerves, joint function, visceral tension patterns, and more. Throughout the entire process, we are not just gathering information — we are closely observing how your nervous system functions in real time, giving us insight into the most effective path forward for your care.
At the conclusion of your initial exam, we sit down together for a clear and collaborative discussion. Your doctor will review your test results, explain how the findings relate to your symptoms, and outline the areas of the brain and body that are involved. We take the time to answer questions you may have and develop a treatment plan that works for you.
This is never a one-size-fits-all process. Your goals matter—whether that means returning to work, walking with ease, sleeping better, or simply feeling like yourself again. What you want to achieve becomes the foundation of your treatment plan.
