Sit halfway on the edge of the bed with your legs hanging down. We will try to get you to lie down, either to the left or right.

Shift your weight to the right in one smooth motion, so your right ear rests on the bed. Make sure to look forward. Hold this position for 30 seconds or until the dizziness or vertigo passes.
Step 3
Sit up again as in Step 1, looking forward. Hold this position for 20 seconds.
Step 4
Shift your weight to the left in one smooth motion, so your left ear rests on the bed. Make sure to look forward. Hold this position for 30 seconds or until the dizziness or vertigo passes.
