Modified Semont maneuver for self-treatment of positional vertigo (left)

• Sit on the edge of the bed, with room on both sides of you. Turn your head 45 degrees to the right. This is looking halfway between straight ahead and over your right shoulder.
• Quickly lie down on your left side with your head still turned to the right so you are looking up at the ceiling. Hold this position for 30 seconds or until any dizziness goes away.
• Quickly sit up, and lie down on your right side without stopping in the middle to sit upright. Keep your head turned to the right while changing positions. When you are lying on your right side, your head will face partly toward the bed or floor. Hold this position for 30 seconds or until any dizziness goes away. Then, sit upright.

Your doctor or therapist will provide instructions about whether and how often to repeat this.
