The Epley maneuver is a common procedure used to treat Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) of the left posterior semicircular canal. Here are step-by-step instructions for performing the Epley maneuver at home for left-sided BPPV:

Before You Begin:

• Find a clear space on your bed or a comfortable flat surface.

• It can be helpful to have someone assist you, but it can also be done alone.

• You may experience some dizziness during the maneuver, which is normal.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Starting Position:

• Sit upright on the edge of your bed.

• Turn your head 45 degrees to the left.

• Place a pillow behind you so that it will rest between your shoulders when you lie down.

1. Lie Back Quickly:

• Keeping your head turned to the left, lie back quickly so that your head is slightly hanging over the edge of the pillow.

• Hold this position for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the dizziness stops.

1. Turn Head to the Right:

• Without lifting your head, turn your head 90 degrees to the right, so it is now 45 degrees to the right of center.

• Hold this position for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the dizziness stops.

1. Turn Body to the Right:

• Turn your body to the right so that you are lying on your right side, with your head now facing downward at a 45-degree angle.

• Hold this position for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the dizziness stops.

1. Sit Up:

• Keeping your head turned to the right, slowly sit up and return to a seated position.

• Sit still for a few minutes to allow any residual dizziness to pass.
