Vestibular Rehabilitation Group
Pharmacological Control Group
Investigators applied vestibular rehabilitation in this group. This group was consist of 15 participants. After the evaluation investigators gave the patients repetitive vestibular exercises for 4 weeks and in the first week investigators performed canalith repositioning procedure depending on the affected canal. If affected posterior semicircular canal investigators applied Epley maneuver. If affected horizontal semicircular canal also applied barbeque roll maneuver.
Investigators did not apply any treatment in this group. Participant in this group just used medications doctor-prescribed.
