Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is a common complaint of emergency department patients. The importance of early diagnosis and treatment can lead to a much improved quality of life for patients afflicted by this ailment. It is the purpose of this study to evaluate and examine two methods of treatment. Patients will be randomized to receive the more common conventional medication therapy versus the canalith repositioning technique. All patients enrolled into this study are emergency department patients who have been diagnosed with BPPV via a positive Dix-Hallpike Maneuver. The hypothesis of this study is that vestibular rehabilitation will allow for resolution of symptoms without the use of conventional medication therapy in the acute management of BPPV in the emergency department patient.
