Abstract

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is one of the most common vestibular disorder worldwide. Management of this pathology is not complicated and can be done in a short period of time with a proper diagnosis and treatment technique. There are several established methods for treatment of this disease includes Epley’s maneuver, Gans Canal Repositioning maneuver (Gans CRM) and others. This study reported a 38-year-old female presented with dizziness and vertigo, which is severely altered her daily activity, showed 90% improvement using the psycho-logical effect assessment tool after three days of treatment with Gans CRM.
