Video demonstrates how the Epley maneuver is performed to treat POSTERIOR canal BPPV affecting the right ear (1:13) as well as left ear (3:17). Dix-Hallpike maneuver (0:19) to diagnose as well as figure out which side ear is the culprit is also shown (so you know which way to turn first).

Instantly worked! My doctor friend recommended trying this technique and this video was brilliant at demonstrating how to self diagnose the condition and which ear, and then how to fix the problem! When I first laid back a white line kept jumping as my eyes struggled to fix on it, but immediately after 1 time of this movement, I could look straight! I no longer get dizzy looking up or lying back. For me this started about 40 days after a COVID reinfection and I read a study saying vertigo 43 days post COVID is surprisingly common. Hope you can continue to do great work in helping others.

Muchas gracias por compartir este video, hay muchos en youtube pero este es el que mejor entendí y más rápido, sentí alivio inmediato a mi vértigo, ya estaba muy espantado ya que nunca había sentido esa sensación extraña de mareo a mis 40 años

I will try the Epley maneuver just now. Thanks.

I am SO grateful for this video! I was diagnosed with BPPV several years ago, and sent to a physical therapist to do the Epley Maneuver (though it felt much more complex then... maybe they did the Dix-Hallpike first). I just did this procedure, intending to start with Dix-Hallpike to verify which ear it was, but as soon as I laid my head back while looking right, there was NO doubt it was my right ear. I held that position for several seconds after my eye twitching stopped, and moved to 2nd position... where I felt nothing. All downhill, right? Well, I rolled onto my left side, and the whole world churned! I'm used to feeling like the room is spinning, but this was the most intense vertigo I have ever felt! When I sat up I was still a tad nauseated, but right now I feel great! I will probably try the maneuver one more time tonight to make sure it's clear, but I am so grateful that I can do this at home now and not have to wait weeks to get an appointment. THANK YOU!

I just did this and I think it worked! When I turned my head to the right, the room was spinning. I tried it twice again about an hour later and It is no longer. We will see tomorrow. Thanks for this video!

THANKYOU for this video, what a scary sensation vertigo is, I did the maneuver and I feel better!

After struggling for over four weeks with vertigo taking prescibed medicine with no result, my doctor gave me some information about this maneuver, but it was difficult to understand. Asking for a PT refferral to help took days to get a response. Resigned that this may be what my existence had become I searched YT for a demonstration. This video concisely explained and demonstrated how to do this. It cured my vertigo. Thank you!
