DISEMBARK:
Overcoming Mal de Débarquement Syndrome
Mal de débarquement syndrome (MdDS) causes sufferers to experience an almost constant rocking, bobbing, or swaying sensation, as if they are trapped on an invisible boat. MdDS was thought of as a rare disorder, but more and more people are being diagnosed with MdDS as awareness and recognition of this condition grows. MdDS can be highly debilitating and affects sufferers’ professional and private lives and is often considered incurable. This book shows you that you can beat MdDS and get your life back. Disembark shows you that remission is very possible.
The first part of this book will help you understand the symptoms of MdDS, its relationship to migraine, and why it occurs. The second part will empower you with the tools you need to overcome MdDS. A wide variety of treatment options are discussed, including diet, nutraceuticals, medications, non-pharmacological interventions (including exercise, neuromodulation), cognitive strategies, as well as vestibulo-ocular readaptation therapy pioneered by Dr. Mingjia Dai. Disembark helps you understand MdDS, and equips you with the many therapeutic options at your disposal.
