2 Tests to Treat BPPV at Home (Vertigo)

January 5, 2024

If you’re looking to treat your vertigo at home, specifically BPPV, you’ll want to start with these two positional tests first!

Before you try out the Epley Maneuver (or the Gufoni Maneuver), you need to know which canal is involved, on which side.

Once you establish posterior canal vs. horizontal canal, and establish right vs. left, now you have a good shot at effectively treating your vertigo!

So make sure you test FIRST before you start trying treatments!
