Rock Steady

“Joey simplifies the complexities of neuroscience and audio-vestibular physiology into digestible, effective prose for the patient seeking self-understanding, validation, and actionable plans to address symptoms. Her emphasis on neuroplasticity and self-compassion is refreshing and inspires patients to initiate their pathway to healing. Joey’s program teaches important concepts of self-discovery, hope, and how to be a leader in your own healing while also effectively meshing with treatment plans within my medical scope, including medication management. She fills a void common in Western medicine that neglects the emotional, spiritual, and mental aspects of health, which are critical to recovering from dizziness.” –Kristen K. Steenerson, MD, Clinical Assistant Professor of Otoneurology, Departments of Otolaryngology and Neurology, Co-Director, Stanford Balance Center (USA)

“Rock Steady is extremely well written–so much research, experience, and passion reflected in its pages. I would recommend it to patients frustrated with their chronic symptoms and searching for how to self-manage their conditions … This book supplements greatly our treatment, reinforces our counsel, and provides a sound written resource that patients can repeatedly return to for guidance and information.” –Ern Chang, General Practitioner, MBBS, MMed (Family Medicine), FRACGP (AUS)

“This book is for everyone suffering from tinnitus and vertigo. It will change the way you think about healing and life. As a fighter pilot, I always have a plan with my mission. With Rock Steady I learned that I could make a plan for my recovery… The plan for me to heal was called neuroplasticity!” –Anders Danielsson, Military Pilot (SWE)

“What a fabulous teaching resource for vestibular physiotherapists(physical therapists) and medical specialists diagnosing and treating people with symptoms of vertigo or tinnitus. There is a gap in the traditional medical management model for people with persistent symptoms of vertigo and tinnitus, and that gap is filled with this practical and novel approach to recovery. I will refer my patients to this book to provide them hope and understanding of possibilities with neuroplasticity and to encourage their use of the many self-management strategies and tools detailed.” –Vicky Stewart, BPhty, PhD, Advanced Vestibular Physiotherapist, Gold Coast University Hospital (AUS)

“Rock Steady is a good introduction to the concepts of neuroplasticity, mindfulness, and self-compassion for patients with chronic dizziness and tinnitus. It discusses how patients can use these techniques, empowering them to build their own personalized treatment plan, in turn leading to improvement in their symptoms and quality of life.” –Debbie Cane, MSC CS, Senior Clinical Scientist and Lecturer in Audiology (UK)

“Joey combines clinical with practical information. Her book is vital for patients with dizziness, tinnitus, and all forms of vertigo, as well as for the providers that care for these patients. Joey synthesizes medical fact with emotional support and guidance in a manner that is unique. Her book provides a source of information for both physicians and the patients they treat. I believe it is a resource that should be used by every patient with vertigo, tinnitus, and PPPD, as well as by the physicians that care for them. Rock Steady is a bridge between medicine and physical therapy and is simply unique in its reach.” –Kenneth Beer, MD, FAAD; Professor, University of Miami; Consulting Associate, Duke University; Clinical Associate in Dermatology, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine (USA)

“Rock Steady provides a fresh perspective on helping people to experience their vertigo and tinnitus not as harmful or even benign body sensations, but as gifts that offer opportunities to become one’s fullest, most vibrant self. I recommend this book to anyone who is distressed or confused by their body sensations and would like to get acquainted with their own wisdom.” –Melissa Platt, PhD, Licensed Clinical Psychologist specializing in healing complex trauma (USA)
