Patients are usually instructed to perform these exercises at home. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
1. Starting Position: Sit on the edge of your bed. 2. First Movement: Lie down quickly on one side, keeping your head at a 45-degree angle. 3. Hold Position: Stay in this position for about 30 seconds or until dizziness subsides. 4. Return to Sitting: Sit up quickly and remain in the sitting position for 30 seconds. 5. Second Movement: Lie down quickly on the opposite side, again keeping your head at a 45-degree angle. 6. Hold Position: Stay for another 30 seconds or until dizziness subsides. 7. Repeat: Perform this cycle 5 times in a row, ideally three times a day.
