Why You Still Have Vertigo and BPPV After the Epley Maneuver

In this informative video, we dive deep into the reasons why you may be experiencing persistent BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo) despite attempting the popular Epley Maneuver. Titled "Why the Epley Maneuver Isn't Resolving Your BPPV: Exploring Other Vestibular Conditions," this video aims to shed light on alternative causes and potential vestibular issues such as Meniere's disease, Superior Canal Dehiscence Syndrome (SCDS), and more.

BPPV is often characterized by brief episodes of dizziness triggered by specific head movements. The Epley Maneuver is widely recommended as a solution for BPPV, as it aims to reposition the displaced calcium crystals within the inner ear. However, it's crucial to understand that BPPV may not always stem from the same source, and hence, the success of the Epley Maneuver could depend on various factors.

One common reason your BPPV symptoms may persist even after attempting the Epley Maneuver is the possibility of having the wrong canal treated. The inner ear consists of several canals, and BPPV may originate from any of them: posterior canal, horizontal canal, or anterior canal. If the Epley Maneuver focuses on the wrong canal, the symptoms are unlikely to improve.

Additionally, it's vital to consider other underlying vestibular conditions that can mimic BPPV symptoms, such as Meniere's disease or SCDS. Meniere's disease is characterized by episodes of vertigo, fluctuating hearing loss, and tinnitus, whereas SCDS is characterized by dizziness caused by sound or pressure changes. These conditions require different treatment approaches than BPPV, making it essential for accurate diagnosis to resolve your vertigo symptoms effectively.

By exploring these potential causes and conditions in-depth, this video aims to help individuals understand why the Epley Maneuver alone may not be resolving their BPPV. Proper diagnosis and identification of the specific vestibular issue are crucial to finding the most suitable treatment for long-lasting relief.

Stay tuned as we present insightful information backed by medical professionals and share effective strategies for managing and finding relief from these vestibular conditions. Don't let persistent BPPV hinder your quality of life any longer – discover the reasons behind your vertigo symptoms and embark on a journey towards effective solutions.

I have had 2 bouts of vertigo extending over a period of few days each time and both times I tried out the Epley maneuver after watching the procedure carefully via Youtube...and the spells of dizziness stopped almost immediately! Truly miraculous!

Learn what vertigo actually is. I found that when i understood what causes the spinning i was less anxious. The nystagmus ( MOVEMENT) of eye on affected side is able to be felt. It can be seen by another too. ( Therapist) when the floaters in the inner canal fluid settle, the spinning stops. Stay calm, quiet and steady as you do the Epley maneuver. You are helping floaters relocate. I have a growing hearing loss in my affected ear. I get vertigo at least once every 14 months. Annoying!

[lararose]

Cant a dr. Test for bppv without agressive dixhalpike? Why do we need to be flat? I just avoid the nightmare by sleeping sitting up straight and cervical collar. I cant tolerate epley i vomit and get seizures. Have neck and spine issues and overweight in a wheelchair so not flexible to do maneuvers plus its not a cure

Of course. If everyone cured themselves the ‘professionals ‘ would be out of a job. 🤣
