Located in Sun City, Florida, our expert team is here to provide you with relief.
What is Positional Vertigo?
Positional vertigo is a common inner ear condition that occurs when tiny calcium particles, known as otoconia, dislodge and move into the wrong part of your ear’s balance system. This can cause dizziness, a sense of spinning, or imbalance, particularly when you move your head or change positions, such as getting up from bed or looking up.
Symptoms of positional vertigo include:
- Dizziness or a spinning sensation (vertigo)
- Unsteadiness or imbalance
- Nausea or vomiting
- Difficulty focusing or concentrating
If left untreated, these symptoms can interfere with your daily activities and overall quality of life.
Comprehensive Positional Vertigo Testing
At Clarity Hearing, we use specialized diagnostic tools to pinpoint the cause of your vertigo and determine the best course of treatment. Here’s what you can expect during your vertigo evaluation:
- Medical and Symptom History: We begin by gathering detailed information about your symptoms, any previous issues with balance, and your overall health history to understand what may be triggering your vertigo.
- Physical Exam: A physical exam will help us assess your balance and coordination, looking for signs of vertigo that occur with specific head movements.
- Dix-Hallpike Test: This is a common test to diagnose positional vertigo. During the test, you’ll be guided through specific head and body movements while our audiologist observes your eye movements (nystagmus) and monitors your symptoms.
Effective Treatment for Positional Vertigo
Once we have a clear diagnosis, our audiologists will recommend an effective treatment plan to alleviate your symptoms and restore your balance. The most common treatment for BPPV is:
- Canalith Repositioning Maneuvers (Epley Maneuver): This non-invasive treatment involves a series of specific head and body movements designed to move the displaced otoconia particles back into the correct part of your inner ear. These movements are performed by our trained audiologists and can often provide immediate relief from vertigo.
- Follow-Up Care and Monitoring: After your treatment, we will schedule follow-up appointments to ensure your symptoms are improving and to provide any additional therapy or adjustments needed to prevent future episodes of vertigo.
Dr. Becker is great. I highly recommend her for your hearing health. I just bought my second set of hearing aids from her and they have changed my quality of life personally and at work. She will take good care of you, make you feel like she does care (and she really does) and will make you happy that you chose to go see her.

Dr. Becker is amazing. She is conscientious, caring, pays attention to the smallest detail, ACTIVELY listens and address ALL your questions and concerns. Dr. Becker will make sure that your hearing aids meet your specific needs. Since meeting with Dr. Becker our television is no longer blaring, I can talk to my wife on the telephone and she is more confident during workplace meetings. I highly recommend you give her a call.

Dr. Becker is wonderful! She has taken care of my mom’s hearing aids for years and has really made a difference for her hearing. She’s kind, understanding, and takes time with her patients. We highly recommend her!
