Active Comparator
Experimental
Manual repositioning maneuver
Treatment in mechanical rotational chair (TRV-chair)
Diagnostics and treatment of BPPV with manual repositioning maneuvers. In case of posterior canal involvement, Epley's maneuver will be used. In case of horizontal canal involvement, the log roll maneuver will be used.
Diagnostics and treatment of BPPV with the use of a TRV chair. In case of posterior canal involvement, Epley's maneuver will be used with the addition of 10 kinetic impulses in each position. In case of horizontal canal involvement, the log roll maneuver will be used with the addition of 10 kinetic impulses in each position.
