It appears that Dore is very similar to VRT, from the evaluations, to the testings, to the actual exercises. It seems the process of "rehabbing/stimulating" a healthy cerebellum using protocols such as those found in VRT to treat vestibular cerebellar dysfunction is the premise of movement-based therapies, to even further enhance the role of the cerebellum in vestibular function, cognition, etc., in the healthy individual.
