Brandt-Daroff Exercises

The movement of a canalith in the left posterior canal around the circumference of the semicircular duct that is provoked with Brandt-Daroff exercises can be seen. This is an excellent therapeutic option when the side of unilateral disease is not known. There would seem to be no therapeutic benefit to the repetitions performed in the direction opposite the side of canalithiasis as no additional otoconia movement is induced.
