What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT) delivered via a mobile app
What this could lead to: If it works, this could offer a more convenient and engaging way to reduce dizziness after a mild concussion.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage trial (68 participants) comparing two forms of the same therapy, so any advantage may be modest or not generalizable.
