First, your treater will have you briskly lie
on your back with your head turned to the symptomatic side at a 45 degree
angle. This picture illustrates a treatment of the right side. Your head
will be kept in this position for 30 to 60 seconds, based on the duration
of the vertigo as measured by observation of your eye movements (for nystagmus).
You will probably be dizzy for the first 10 seconds. |
