Epley's maneuver is a specific series of head and body movements used to treat benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), a common inner ear disorder. The maneuver involves moving the patient's head through a sequence of positions to dislodge and reposition calcium crystals in the inner ear that are causing vertigo symptoms. By guiding the crystals back into the proper location within the inner ear, Epley's maneuver can alleviate symptoms of vertigo and restore balance function. It is a well-established and effective treatment for BPPV when performed correctly by trained healthcare professionals.
