Hi Danny

I first did vestibular rehab at month 4 and they discharged me after 2 months for whatever reason (I was nowhere near ready). I then chose to go back to vestibule rehab at a different place at month 14 and it did wonders for me. So I think it is well worth it. I also agree that the quality of the therapist/therapy is important.

Also, FYI, my light and sounds sensitivity decreased quite a bit during vestibular rehab. My therapist does work with different videos and flashing lights and things to help with that. It may be worth trying to find a good therapist trained in concussion and vestibular problems.
