Effective Care for Difficult Problems

Treatment For Patients Suffering With Vertigo, Dizziness, Imbalance, Dystonia, MTBI, ADD ADHD and other Neurologic and Neurobehavioral Disorders
Vertigo, although most commonly associated with inner ear disorders, has several causes including both vestibular, (inner ear), as well as central, (brain based). Dizziness and dysequilibrium, (imbalance), are often seen as secondary effects of vertigo as well, associated with subtle changes in the brain, which we see in those afflicted with vertigo and dizziness. Relief of vertigo symptoms depends on determining and eliminating the cause. Vertigo, dizziness and imbalance may be caused by a more serious condition that many health care providers can miss since they dont treat neurologic and/or vestibular conditions on a day-to-day basis. In the past, the standard medical treatment for symptoms of dizziness was the prescription of certain vestibular suppressant medications, such as Meclizine. In the last ten years, the understanding of brain function has exploded. The nineties have been referred to as “The Decade of the Brain.” Brain based understanding as well as understanding of vestibular dysfunction, (vertigo and dizziness, presyncope, etc), has yielded extensive new therapies and treatments for resultant conditions, such as vertigo and dizziness, dystonia, as well as a multitude of behavioral disorders, such as attention deficit disorder, (ADD ADHD), dyslexia, etc. It is now known that brain/vestibular dysfunction is is also intimately related to many conditions, including learning disabilities such as ADD ADHD, phobias, panic attacks and anxiety, scoliosis, movement disorders, including dystonia, Parkinson’s, Mild Cognitive Impairment, essential tremors, etc., and brain injury, (TBI, MTBI), as well as vertigo symptoms and symptoms of dizziness, disequilibrium and other disorders of imbalance, which predispose increased and premature fall risk associated with imbalance.
The resultant development of new protocols in diagnosis and treatment primarily of brain based disorders, such as vertigo and dizziness, dystonia, etc., continue to be developed today, and many focus on accepted understanding of central control mechanisms of the brain involved in movement, balance, and postural stability. Our unique approach to treatment incorporates functional integrative neurological and neurodevelopmental rehabilitation. Dr. Scopelliti credits his success with these more exotic neurologic and neuro-otologic conditions to his in-depth diagnosis and conservative treatment protocols which diagnose the true cause of the patients symptoms, (like vertigo and dizziness), then treat it to properly to provide as much long term relief as possible.
Out of State Patients
Because of the high level of specialization and success of our practice, we routinely see patients from out of town and from out of state suffering with untreated complex brain based disorders such as vertigo, dizziness, dysequilibrium, dystonia and traumatic brain injury, (TBI). If you are coming to see us from out of state, you can find a local hotel to make arrangements at by keying in the phrase “hotels in Long Branch NJ” into Google map search box, or, your favorite mapping application. You can find the local map of our office on our Directions page. This will bring up several local hotels and their contact information. We typically advocate spending the week as you will be seeing the doctor daily. Please call our office for any assistance which you may need regarding a hotel stay or transportation.
The following are representative of the types of conditions for which we routinely see patients in our office:
“Learn To Live With it” or, “Your Problem Is In Your Head” Patients
This is the vast majority of our practice, comprised of patients who have been to specialist after specialist, had lots of tests, are not getting better, and are told simply to “Learn To Live With it” or, “Your Problem Is In Your Head”.

Patients Not Responding To A Care Plan
Patients who have been treating for one to two weeks and are not improving or are worsening.
Independent Evaluations Regarding Appropriateness Of Care
Patients who have been inadvertently cut off from care either by peer review or IME, which appears to be biased and not representative of the patients actual status.
Other Scenarios Such As Athletic Enhancement In Timing And Coordination
Our office is a fully established balance center focusing largely in the primary treatment of patients with vertigo, dizziness, dysequilibrium, (imbalance & fall risk), dystonia and ADD ADHD.
