============================================================
Hey, Doctor AJ here from Stronglife Physiotherapy. If you feel intense spinning or vertigo when you roll over in bed, get into or out of bed or when looking up or down then this video is for you. I’ll show you how to instantly fix it with a very specific maneuver that you can do at home.
I shared this a few years back and it quickly became my most watched video because it works so well, this is an updated version with better audio.
This technique only works for vertigo caused by BPPV. This type of vertigo happens when crystals in the inner ear become loose and enter the semi-circular canal. When these crystals move inside the canal, it creates a false sensation of spinning that is very intense but only lasts 30 to 60 seconds and is only triggered by certain head movements like looking up or down, getting in and out of bed. These attacks feel like the room is spinning and can cause nausea and vomiting. Some people have BPPV attacks for a few weeks others will have them years, either way it’s important to know how to take of them yourself so you don’t have to suffer longer than is necessary. I recommend saving this video for future reference.
Before getting started, I want to give credit to Dr. Carol Foster who came up with this maneuver. It’s called the Half Somersault Maneuver, you’ll see why as we’re doing it. I also want to make sure you are safe when doing this maneuver. It is very safe to do but you will get dizzy so you need to make sure you are in a safe place. Doing it on the floor is fine just make sure the area around you is clear so if you tip over you won’t hit anything. You can also do it on your bed if it is big enough so that you don’t fall off if you become dizzy. Most people are able to do this safely on their own, but it can be helpful to have someone there to help if you are unsure. Also, be prepared for the spinning and nausea that this will cause, it will come in waves but it will pass. Some people do throw up so have a trash can near by just in case.
First, start in a kneeling position. Quickly tilt your head back so you are looking up at the ceiling. This may cause some spinning, which is OK and expected. You can close your eyes if you prefer. Breathe slowly and deeply for 30 seconds or until the feeling of spinning stops.
Now lean forward onto your hands keeping your head straight, as if you are going to do a somersault. Your head should be completely upside down and tucked under in front of your knees with your hands supporting your on both sides of your head. Hold this position for 30 seconds or as long as it takes for the spinning to stop.
Now turn your head toward the elbow of the side your affected ear is on. This will be about 45 degrees or halfway to your shoulder. Keep your head in this position for 30 seconds or until the spinning stops completely.
Keeping you head turned and quickly raise your head so it is level with your back, you’ll probably feels some dizziness, but keep steady and hold this position until all the spinning stops or at least 30 seconds.
Finally, with your head still turned quickly raise your head to an upright position and return to a kneeling position. Hold this position until the spinning stops completely.
After you’re done, take some time to reassess and see if you still have dizziness. Shake your head side to side and up and down. If you still have dizziness you may need to repeat the maneuver. It can take several times to get full relief.
If you need more help because you’re scared of making the vertigo worse or you can’t get down on your knees, or if run into problems doing the maneuver, or if you want to learn how to stop having these vertigo attacks in the future, I created a video course that walks you though the whole process step by step including what to do if your vertigo changes or gets worse after doing the maneuver. Click the link in the description to learn more, but either way I wish you the best in overcoming your vertigo!
The only channel and exercise that has gotten rid of my vertigo. Thank you, Dr. AJ! Much appreciated. 🙂
You’re welcome, so glad it helped! That’s why I make videos and it’s awesome to hear your success story, thanks for sharing 😀
Почему ни наруском
Carol Foster as well since it's her maneuver and it seems to be the only thing that works for most people because others they want you flat on your back on a pillow and that's why you have
There needs to be a public awareness campaign about this very scary condition/experience. I was pushed by medical professionals to go to the emergency room and have a barrage of tests (concern about a possible stroke even though I had no other symptoms besides the dizziness and nausea). I found my own info online about BPPV - it took three days of performing the Epley Manuever without results. My extreme spinning and nausea occurred for hours after waking up. One try of the Half Somersault technique (with a bucket next to me in case) finally did the trick.
Yes! There are so many unnecessary ER visits due to BPPV. Ultimately it's better to be safe than sorry but a little information on this topic is really helpful to get people the right treatment more quickly. The Half Somersault Maneuver is amazing at helping this condition, so glad it was helpful for you!
BPPV hit me a month ago when I rolled over one morning to get out of bed. How scary it was...I thought I was going to meet my maker as the whole world was spinning violently and I began throwing up from intense nausea. After a trip to the ER, bloodwork, EKG, and CAT scan to the head, the scary stuff was ruled out. I was diagnosed with BPPV, given drugs to ease the vertigo and nausea (which didn't help much), and scheduled to see a physical therapist the next day. By the time the next day came, the vertigo was gone. However, the physical therapist did show me how to perform the home Epley Maneuver. All was good. Fast forward to this past weekend. I rolled over in bed to get up and it hit me again. Try as I might, I could not get past the second step of the Epley Maneuver without intense vertigo, nausea, and vomiting. I started looking at youtube videos and discovered Dr. Foster's half-summersault maneuver. What a charm! I did not get the intense vertigo and nausea I did from the Epley Maneuver, and it worked. I had to do it 3 times (waiting 15 minutes between tries as recommended by Dr. Foster), but it did subside. This video is the real deal!
Omg, this was me the same thing happened to me and the Epley maneuver made it worst for me after I saw a therapist. It started to happen on both sides last night. I was lucky to get another appointment with a vestibular doctor who prescribed me steroids and is going to do a balance exam next week however he did tell me to try this exercise I'm going to try it now and see if it works with steroid I can't really feel the dizziness but it a tingle feeling so hopefully it works
Hello, when does the brain fog subside?
Thanks for posting your experience. It really helped.
Thank you very much for your post 🙏🏼❤
Thank you so much Doctor. Its of immense benefit to all those who suffer from vertigo. Thank you once again
I was skeptical this would work, but with a few tries, man! You’ve saved my week! Thank you thank thank you
This is totally amazing. I’ve been down for almost 3 weeks trying everything even going to the emergency room. After doing it once I was finally able to eat a bowl of soup for the first time in two weeks. I’m gonna continue to do it until I get complete relief but the second time I did it on the right side my ear popped, which really gave me a lot of relief. Thank you for this video.
I was reaching for my phone in bed trying to stop the alarm and the room started spinning. After that resting my head back in the pillow made my head feel like spinning. This exercise helped right away.
Glad it worked for you, thanks for sharing!
5 weeks of vertigo and dizziness, thought I was dying .. this worked … thank you so much…
I have been experiencing the same exact problem just recently. First vertigo attack June 19 and it had been ongoing up until today. Please, can you tell me if I should do this maneuver once a day when the vertigo starts OR several times a day to prevent future vertigo attacks. 🙏☠️ I NEED SOME RELIEF AND PEACE OF MIND!
Going through the same here, was hospitalized as well and now I’m home dealing with the pain, I hope this works cause I feel like I’m dying from the headaches and vision blur
@gerardolucatero8423 This just happened to me the last week of June 2023. It is horrible! Is it GERD/ACID REFLUX? WHAT CAUSED YOUR VERTIGO?
@@Mickey71773Mine is triggered by low barometric pressure (warm weather / storms / summer).
Many thanks for the video. Completely normal right next day after the excercise. God bless you Doctor.
Hooray!
The best presentations thats seen thus far, will be back with feedback
Hi I I've been suffering with vertigo for 11 days it has proper knocked me off my feet and been almost bed bound,I did this manover yesterday about 3 times and I've woke up this morning feeling so much better thank you so much.
Did it ever come back
So grateful for this video. Thankyou.
You’re welcome!
Mostly when I was walking, I had a disturbing dizziness when I turned left and right. I was having trouble going to my work.
I did the exercise on the right and left sides. I can say that it cured 90%.
It's like I was born again. Thank you very much.
Glad it helped! Thanks for sharing!

THANK YOU DOCTOR, IT IS SUPER EASY TO DO COMPARING THE OTHER METHOD !!
SO much better right? I’m glad it was helpful!
Thank you !!!!!!. I took a prescribed medicine for vertigo for ten days, but it came back one day after I stopped it (as prescribed). I decided to try the somersault maneuver and it worked. Thanks again
That's awesome, thanks for sharing! So glad it helped!

Love this thank you doc. ❤
Great job. Great result. Btw great physique. Thanks Doctor
Thank you it worked out great for me!!!
Hooray!
Thank you.
This Doctor is fabulous and showed me how to correct my Vertigo several months ago. I recently was having a pulsing sound in my ears and I thought it was Tinnitus but when I was bending over with my straight legs apart (like a giraffe) picking weeds it corrected the crystals and no more whooshing in my ears!! Yeah! Janet. 2/13/23.
Thanks Janet! So glad the vertigo and pulsing sounds are gone!
Thank you!
You’re welcome!
Thank you 🙏
You’re welcome, thanks for watching!
Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
I've recently been diagnosed with BPPV, we're assuming due to an infection I had right before it started but it probably doesn't help I've had about 3 concussions in my past! I was starting to improve and then someone set off our building alarm while I was standing next to the siren and now I can barely move without everything spinning. I'm so pleased to have found this video and can't wait to see if the exercises help. Thank you for making such a clear, easy to follow guide!
You're welcome, hope you get relief!
So, has it helped? Update please👍
hello doctor, I was diagnosed 5 months ago with BPPV, I was in treatment for these months, with the Epley maneuver it went away for a while but the dizziness returned and I fell into depression. Find your video and with these exercises add them to my vestibular physiotherapy and wow, they have worked much better. Thank you very much!!
I think the half somersault does way better than the Epley. So glad it helped!
How are you feeling now?
How are u now, I also have the same problem, plz reply
The exercises helped a little but my dizziness has not been resolved. I am trying a procedure called magnetic stimulation that they tell me can help with this type of disorder and I hope so.
@@Freddypt100 okay freddy, I am also suffering from bppv, I have been doing eplay since 3 months 2 times a day, but dizziness persists, feels like I m travelling in a train all the tym. Thanks for reply
Thank you it is helpfull 🎉
You're welcome 😊
Thnk u Doc, I justed dd e exercise feeling better
Awesome! Glad it helped!
Спасибо,бравооооо.🙏💐👍👏💝🏥
I've had bouts of BPPV for several years now. I've always done the Epley manoeuvre to get rid of it with a fair amount of success. This manoeuvre is easier actually. I had to do it this morning and after feeling utterly dire beforehand and while carrying it out, I feel better now than I have for days. It's weird because here in Italy they seem largely unaware of BPPV, putting absolutely every case of vertigo down to "Cervicale" (due to neck tension - their go-to for nearly everything), something I'd never even even heard of prior to living here, and "labyrinthitis". I mentioned BPPV to my doctor once and I had the feeling he had no idea what I was talking about, which is a bit worrying!! Thanks for this easy solution!
Thanks for sharing your experience, so glad it helped! BPPV is so common I'm surprised it's not more well known in the medical community there in Italy.
@@StronglifePhysiotherapy Quite....
I was diagnosed with BPPV several years ago. It was very bad, causing me to vomit just sitting still once. My doctor recommended this therapy and the original website with its video. It worked the very first time I used it! My grown daughter had the same problem and the same results from this therapy. It’s a miracle! Very very effective. Thanks for posting this great video illustrating it.
Thanks for sharing your results! Glad it was able to help you and your daughter!
How many time do you had to do the exercise , I have it an it really bad
@@mahindersingh7890 Honestly, not many. For both my daughter and I, it worked the first time. You can feel the crystals moving back into place if you do it correctly. Watch and mimic the video. You may have to follow up for a bit, but if you truly have BPPV, this procedure works!
@@mahindersingh7890 did you do this exercise any change?
@@maurinecromwell1541 I heard if you do it wrong it can make things worse
I'm going to try this. I'll post if it worked for me.
Hope it works for you!
Hi there, my mum has lower back problems, she's 78. Any advise on different positions for her... Thank you
I was scared to try this exercise as I knew it would cause extreme dizziness.
I could only at first do the first step. I had to try very slowly the 2nd position as I was extremely dizzy. It took several tries to do the complete exercise. But it work!
I do feel lightheadedness and have headaches. But is mild. I’m very happy.
I self diagnose myself with bppv.
Thank you so much for this video.
Thanks for sharing your experience! So glad it helped!
Way better 😮
Kind of amazing right?
I cannot kneel sitting on my heels like you are doing, so I stay up while on my knees. This still seems to work. I have to do this multiple times, but it gets easier each time. It does hurt my neck though.
I have Meniere syndrome for 12 years and its cronic. It helps a little

You’re welcome 😊
Had vertigo since 2013/2014. Ever since when ever my vertigo come. I always used this menuever. But im not using with looking at my elbow. Usually i look towards my shoulder and it works best.
Nice! A little extra head rotation, thanks for sharing!
@@StronglifePhysiotherapy Thanks and thanks to u too. U are my saver
Hi Doctor, thank you for the video, very helpful. Is it possible to activate subtitles in Spanish? My mom suffers from vertigo but, she only speaks Spanish. It would be a huge help and benefit to Spanish speakers if you would enable subtitles in Spanish.
Thank you so much!
Thank you for the video. Is it common for the vertigo symptoms to come back and I need to do this maneuver every two months or so?
You're welcome! In some cases, yes it can come back. For some people the crystals dissolve and don't cause more problems. For others they remain and can eventually re-enter the inner ear canals and cause vertigo again. Vitamin D3 supplements can help reduce recurrence. I recommend a type with K2 in it as well. I also have a comprehensive vertigo protocol that goes into way more depth which you can find here: bppvcured.com
Hope this helps!
I thought I was stuck with this, so glad to know I don’t need surgery’s
Definitely nice to avoid surgery when possible!
I did this exercise about three times. The next day I was much better.
🙌 Glad it helped!
Did it ever come back?
No.
Hey doctor aj I was dizzy for like two weeks on and I was prescribed promethazine and Valium the dizziness stopped but i still feel a little off
Hello. i can try this maneuver while practicing brandt daroff. exercises?
I was involved in a car accident which i ended up with a fractured neck,laceration on my head and few bumps on my head. Now Im experiencing really bad dizziness when I bend forward to pick something up or when I lay on my side. I can’t perform these exercises because of my fractured neck and I’m wearing a neck brace.
I hope I don’t have to live with this vertigo for the rest of my life since I’m still in my late 20s
Is this a safe maneuver to do while pregnant?
Dr. AJ I like your cure. One does not have to turn-over and require help of another person (better for older people). My problem is you did not include how to determine which ear was the affected ear.
This Doctor has a video to help determine which ear is causing the issue. Check it out.
Dear Dr. AJ,
I had suffered from BPPV and canal paresis since I was only 4. My neurologist prescribed betahistin, it didn't seem to help that much, and the illness tortured me to the age of 18 or so. Since then, I had very little symptoms, but about 10 days ago, all of a sudden a continuous dizziness started that is only gone when I lay down. Today, it became so severe (despite of the fact I took betahistin again and started doing vestibular exercises) that I could hardly leave my chair at work. Last week I contacted an otorhinolaryngologist, but I only have appointments for MRI and otoneurologic examinations for next week. I'm really seeking for answers what can cause such an uncomfortable and prolonged illness, since such a young age. I watched this video, did the exercises 3 times and they seem to help a bit. I still feel very dizzy while walking, but at least the worst of my vertigo is over. Thank you.
I also wanna try this but I’m so scared of spinning and everything. The feeling is so bad 😢 yesterday for the first time i experienced this
How many times do I need to do these exercises ? I have vertigo an it’s pretty bad .
Also this exercise is effective and helped reduce the vertigo a lot, how long can it take for recovery, If spinning is still present? Is that normal or could it be another vertigo, if vestibular migraine what’s the difference?
Once you get all the crystals repositioned you shouldn't have any more spinning. It could be that you got most the crystals out, but there are some remaining still causing spinning. BPPV attacks are only triggered by head movements. Vestibular migraine has different triggers like certain foods, screens or other causes and isn't related as much to head movements. Hope that helps! We also have a program that takes you through the whole process at bppvcured.com
Thanks for your response, it does make sense. I feel after the exercises each day it has gotten better and helped the vertigo like symptoms not as intense.
But it’s like my brain is still caught in the trip of motion, some faint wobble sense motion still in the brain still. Is it possible
Could it take time for the brain to settle after a chronic episode of vm or bbbp?
And during this phase, should I keep doing the exercises? As it almost feels it’s nearly going!
( been suffering for a while now 5-6months at least, & first time ever in this horrible situation)
Also I had been proscribed Propranolol 10mg, should I take it to help that bit more, not sure If you no much about it I just hate medication and try to avoid.
The medication is meant to help with vestibular migraine symptoms and anxiety as well?
Many thanks !
hello, Dr. AJ! I got diagnosed with BPPV late last year and had another attack just this week. As I searched for some exercise, I came across your video, which is where I found out about this new maneuver (previously I only knew about the Epley maneuver). You mentioned in your video to "treat" a specific ear, but when I tried this out, I don't really feel the spinning sensation on either sides of my body/ear, but only felt it when I tilt my head back (center). I tried doing this maneuver one time for my left ear and assessed myself right after, as what you did in the video. I didn't feel the spinning when I tilted my head on either side, but rather felt it in between, i.e. as my head moved along the center/front. In this case, is it better to just do this maneuver for both ears? Or, would this be a different case altogether?
I did feel some relief after the first try, compared to doing the Epley maneuver earlier. So your video has been of great help!!
It's just miracle .... Thanku somuch Dr... It was just like miracle... I couldnt even moove my head from last 4 days n had so many medicines and than come over ur video and it's just a blessing. .. thnkusmoch Dr..
You’re very welcome! So glad it helped!
Thank you for this video. Helped so much. I was taking Serc before trying this. And i think am almost cured
I tried Epley Maneuver before, and it didn't work. This one did
Glad it helped!
I have to give this a try. Does it worked for Menieres disease/vertigo?
Unfortunately it doesn’t work for Ménière’s, just BPPV
@Stronglife Physiotherapy thanks for the response. I wish there is one for it that can help.😑
Is vertigo exercises continuous forever ?
What do i do with constant dizziness
I have had dizziness, unbalance & blurry vision as well as headaches for about 8 months now & it has been the worst, these past months have been so depressing. I have got test done & everything seems good mri scans, blood work etc. I recently started going to physical therapy for vertigo & the first day they did the hallpike maneuver & the next day I felt about 80-90% better & later that day I was driving & I felt it all come back 😭 some days I’ll be good & the next day it can all come & go throughout the day I was diagnosed with bppv in Mexico but I’m still wondering if it is still bppv or something else please help !
Could you please update me, has this gotten better for you? I’ve never had this before and my symptoms are the same as your and they started in Jan of this yr, after I had Covid-19, and so it’s been 9 months of these symptoms. Is there anything that helps you?
@@marianev559 I’m also worried😢it’s so bad
Hey dock
I tried it once didn’t seem really to do something
I have dizziness and the feeling like everything is tilted
Do you have any other recommendations?
i am from Ethiopia and i don't have credit card how can i get your online exercises.
My BPPV vertigo symptom will appear very fast and will go away less than one minute or so. After it stabilised, I will feel normal again but with anxiety as a result. How to do your kind of self treatment during the sudden attack when I am sitting down or standing or walking?
Did this maneuver yesterday, feeling lot better. Should I continue doing this for prevention of further episodes ?
Hi doctor are you better now? I’m having the same issue since yesterday everything feels weird😢
@@user-zc3es2xv4t I am fine by God’s grace. I discussed with my ENT surgeon and stopped doing any exercises after 3 days.
@@user-zc3es2xv4tHow are you now
How do you know which sides its coming from..
this maneuver usually works on me. i did it again this morning on my right side, which stopped the slight spinning of the room, but as i was resting and recovering from the nausea, the room started to spin again whenever i looked downwards. it stopped when i focused my eyes straight. this was the first time i experienced this. so i tried the deep head hanging exercise and then the half somersault move about 15 mins later, but neither stopped the spin when i bent forward or looked downwards. i'm trying not to look down as i'm typing this and hoping it will go away soon. is this common as well for bppv? and is there another exercise i could do to alleviate those symptoms? thank you.
Hey helloo same happened with me after first attemt its gone then after a day its start when i look down r u ok now ? If yes what u do after that?
hey doctor before i start doing this, please tell me which side should i sleep on after this doing this maneuver? thanx.
Best to sleep on your back (if possible) with your head elevated on two pillows. Sleeping this way for a week or so will decrease the chances of it coming back. Best of luck to you!
Epley maneuver works better because you are on a bed or PT table and if you have it in both ears
Epley Maneuver is great and works for many. My experience is the half somersault maneuver often is successful when Epley is not. Many people find it easier to perform as well. But no need to change something if it’s working for you.
How many times per day do you recommend doing this? Just don’t wanna over do it.
There's not really a limit. It takes most people 3-5 attempts to get the spinning to fully stop but you can do more than that if needed in a day or wait until another day. If you get too nauseated you can give yourself more time in between attempts.
Can you do these leaning on the bed; if you have osteoarthritis in both knees?
Yes, there are sitting and standing versions of this maneuver! I don't have videos of them on UA-cam but I include them in my BPPV Vertigo protocol which can be found here: bppvcured.com

Oh, THANK YOU🙂💕

Would this work for mdds?
Would it help to take dramamine before I do this? I have had vertigo for many years. It comes and goes away but usually I have to have the Epely maneuver done which makes me throw up. I am going to try this later today but it is so hard to let myself get dizzy on purpose.
Dramamine may be helpful! Hope you have a better experience with the half somersault maneuver, I like it better than the Epley maneuver for BPPV. Best of luck luck to you, would love to hear how it goes!
@@StronglifePhysiotherapy I actually tried it last night without the dramamine and I felt a little dizzy but nothing like I did with the Epley. I was also able to turn onto my right side in bed and felt slight dizziness when I first turned over but I was able to stay there and sleep. So much better! I will do it again tonight and hope it fully gets resolved. Thanks for the advice! If this works for a few months I will be very happy.
I gotta try this, I'm affected on both sides 😢
Hope it helps!
Can you over-do this exercise? How many times should you repeat the movements
You can't really over do it, although once the symptoms are gone it's not really necessary and has a small risk of particle re-entering the inner ear canal.
about a month ago the first episode of bvvp: I couldn't move my head for 3 days. I did the epley maneuver 2 times. the first time it was traumatic, almost a panic attack, but after that I felt better. I did the epley again and in the last step I had a lot of dizziness (more than in all the other 3 steps) now after 2 weeks I have learned to get in and out of bed very slowly so as not to have dizziness. Do I expect it to improve over time or is it time to perform this maneuver?
If you still have dizziness you may still have some free floating crystals. Doing this maneuver should help clear the rest of them out. Sometimes you have to do the maneuver several times to get full relief.
what works best epely or somersault?
Definitely half Somersault, give it a try!
I've had several bad vertigo attacks over past 5 years god how I hate it
Sorry to hear. Hope you get relief!
I went for my daily run last year and as soon as I stopped I felt this super intense dizziness. Fast forward a year and after 4 blood tests, an MRI on my brain, 2 ECGs a heart scan and a 7 day heart monitor with norhing found. I finally know whats causing it. The diziness after a run can last for hours. Is it safe to run then carry out this manoeuvre after? I really want to start running again but Im not sure and anxious about it. Thank you
STRONGLIFE PHSYOTHERAPY. THANKS A LOT THIS EXERCIZE HELP MY TO MUCH NOT MORE VERTIGOS. ONLY A DID 2 TIMES GOD BLESS YOU. DR.!!!!
You’re welcome! So glad you got relief!
Hi, Is flying with this BPPV dangerous or can able to fly? Does the pressure fluctuation will increase the dizziness while fly?
The pressure from flying won’t cause problems. The main thing to watch out for is tilting your head back especially while in a reclined position. This can trigger a BPPV attack.
@@StronglifePhysiotherapy Thank you DR for your kind reply. Since this will not cause any effects, recommended to fly?
Yes, you should be fine to fly! Do the half somersault maneuver to help get rid of your BPPV then be careful about your head position! Best of luck to you!
I have bad vertigo start 2019 and I tried so many vertigo relief exercises but not working properly just few minutes it works after that again same problem.
Sorry to hear it keeps coming back! Doing it 3-5 times in a row or sometimes more can help get full relief but it never seems to work for you, it may be a different type of vertigo. Wish you the best!
I can’t tell which side is the most affected, is there a way to figure it out or just do both?
I would do both sides first. The side that u feel dizzy the most is the affected side
I have my vertigo 8 months now and I’m so sick of felling dizzy all the time😢 it affects my self for doing my work or going out with my friends and driving😢
How are you doing now?

I have only had this twice in my life. I still don't socialise so I've no idea where I got a virus. I've had it 6 days now and it's making me very depressed. I can't drive, even walking makes me nauseous. I await an ENT appt to diagnose BPPV or Meniere's. If it was the latter do these exercises help?
Thank you, I'm going to try it later.
Glad you're going to see an ENT. If walking is difficult and causes nausea, I suspect it's not BPPV since it seems to be a longer lasting form of vertigo. BPPV has very short very intense vertigo attacks. Meniere's or vestibular neuritis are possibilities among others. This exercise will only help BPPV, not Meniere's or any other type of vertigo, unfortunately. It also won't make other types of vertigo worse. Doing it can be useful to rule BPPV in or out. Hope you're able to get relief soon!
@@StronglifePhysiotherapy Thanks for responding. I did your exercise four times and the vertigo is almost gone. I still feel a little spaced out but no spinning or nausea. I didn't describe my symptoms very well, I was more nauseous when moving my head. I read Meniere's vertigo is NOT positional, my dizziness is definitely positional. Bending down, turning in bed, looking up. I do hope it's not Meniere's as that is very debilitating and depressing. My hearing is not affected. Thank you again.
You say to "turn your head to the side that the affected ear is on" (2:40), but how does someone know which side is causing vertigo if there isn't pain in either ear?
Day 9 of COVID Was in the hospital yesterday and today I tested negative for for but they told me to do the Epley maneuver and it didn’t work it made everything worse literally just want this nightmare to be over
Sorry to hear! This maneuver tends to work better than the Epley. I hope it works for you so you can get relief!
I sure hope you tried this listening to them about the Epley movement and you realize when you're laying on your back your dizzy so that makes no sense they want you to tilt your head over a pillow thank goodness this actually helps it might take a while I hope you're feeling better

The first time i have it i was so scared but my daughter was with me
How is it now
What does BPPV stand for?
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo 👍🏻
Does getting too much calcium from food or drinks cause this? Thanks. Also, I am 71 and have bone spurs on my knees and it is very painful to be on my hands and knees. Is there another way to do this maneuver?
Calcium levels may be a factor because low levels of vitamin D are linked to increased risk of BPPV and Vitamin D helps our body regulate calcium. I highly recommend a Vitamin D3/K2 combo for those that have BPPV. You can do the same maneuver sitting or standing. I don’t have a video available on UA-cam but I demonstrate it is my BPPV program: bppvcured.com
Mines on both sides
It's much less common to have it on both sides but is possible. You can definitely do the exercise on both sides. Best of luck to you!
i have been suffering with vertigo from last 13 years and recently i started feeling lightheadedness througout the day...i cant even walk on road or cross the street without holding someone hand....i went to an ENT so he performed epley manuever but i think that didnt work much and after that i did all the research about vertigo but what i found is am i having vision issue or any vitamin defficiency...so while having bppv is it common to feel lightheadedness throughout the day...with this problem i cant even spend time with my kid
i even had a doubt if im having meniers disease bcz i loss hearing in one ear for like 1-2 min and also sometimes i feeling ringing in my ear....is it possibile to have both bppv and meniers disease at the same time
But in September I was driving I'm a trucker I got out of my truck I started to walk toward the back I felt like walking sideways the first steps I finished my day but when I got home open my car door I felt a little more intense Went to walk in clinic Dr in turned send me to ER and after few exams and test sent me home follow up with my regular Dr my doctor said it was BPVV it surprise me why the first doctor didn't saw my situation About 10 day ago it came back when I try to get up of bed it for a few minutes but also for about 6 days every morning today I feel just a bit off but moving
Anymore update?
@@luxuryqueen42 No more dizziness But since my atlas is been out of alignment for long time every once in a while still get it but jus for a few seconds
I have BPPV but I don’t know which is the affected side as I feel dizzy when lying on either side. I no longer have the nystagmus. How can i tell which side it’s on? I feel dizzy if I sleep on my left or right side so I feel like I’m making it worse. Is there a solution if you don’t know the affected side? Thx!
You can do the half somersault maneuver on both sides if you can’t tell which it is. Also, sleeping on your back with head elevated on two pillows can help
@@StronglifePhysiotherapyIs there a chance of making symptoms worse if the manuever is performed incorrectly?
