2. How It Works

By guiding a patient through a specific sequence of positions, a therapist can relieve their symptoms.  The first few positions help dislodge any calcium crystals that have embedded themselves in the cupula. As the patient moves through the remaining positions, these crystals travel backward and no longer affect the cupula.
