BPPV (Positional Vertigo) Treatment in Vellore
Brief spinning attacks triggered by rolling in bed, looking up, or bending down — caused by dislodged crystals in the inner ear.
BPPV happens when otoconia (calcium crystals) migrate into a semicircular canal. It's the commonest cause of vertigo and usually resolves in 1–2 Epley manoeuvres.

"Insurance-friendly billing and detailed reports for my employer. My bppv recovery plan included manual therapy, dry needling, and progressive loading — exactly what current research recommends. Five stars."
Rajesh M.Viruthampet, Vellore - Dec 2026
"Compared three clinics in Vellore before choosing this one. What convinced me was that the assessment for my bppv was proper — orthopedic tests, movement screen, and a written plan. No generic ultrasound-and-go treatment like elsewhere."
Revathi G.Bagayam, Vellore - Sep 2026
"Home-visit physiotherapy for my grandmother — bed-bound with bppv. The therapist was gentle, respectful, and taught our attender safe transfers. Family peace of mind is priceless. Charges are very reasonable for Vellore."
Hari S.Chittoor, Vellore - Dec 2026
"My father, a diabetic patient in Arakkonam, was recovering from bppv. The physiotherapist worked around his sugar levels, mobility, and family schedule. Six weeks in, he is walking without support. Truly patient-centred care."
Naveen V.Arakkonam, Vellore - May 2026
"Booked a home visit for my mother's bppv in Vellore Fort. One-on-one attention, honest pricing, no unnecessary sessions. WhatsApp reminders and follow-ups made the recovery smooth. Highly recommend for anyone looking for evidence-based physio in Vellore."

"Great experience from Thorapadi. Clean clinic, air-conditioned rooms, latest equipment for bppv rehabilitation. The therapist speaks Tamil, English and Hindi so my in-laws had no issue explaining their symptoms."
Arun R.Thorapadi, Vellore - Feb 2025
"Sports injury from local cricket — my bppv was ruining my season. The return-to-sport protocol here is elite: force-plate testing, criteria-based progression, sport-specific drills. Back on the field in 6 weeks, stronger than before."
Mohan T.Arcot, Vellore - Jan 2025
"Referred by a colleague in Katpadi. The dry-needling and manual therapy for my bppv gave same-day relief, and the strengthening plan made it last. First clinic where a physio actually watched me move before treating."
Lakshmi P.Katpadi, Vellore - Jan 2026
"Post-surgery rehab for bppv was handled beautifully. Coordinated directly with my surgeon at CMC. Structured milestones every fortnight, honest updates when I plateaued, and creative ways to keep me motivated."
Kavitha N.Ambur, Vellore - May 2025
"Was skeptical about physiotherapy for bppv — thought only rest or surgery would help. After a 45-minute assessment I understood exactly what was wrong and what to do. Symptoms reduced by 70% in one month. Wish I had come earlier."
