Abstract

|
We report a case of Benign postural vertigo. The signs and symptoms of benign postural vertigo are transient and rarely last longer than 40 seconds. They frequently occur when a certain position is assumed, such as lying down or turning in bed. Other causes of vertigo are also intensified by position change. Many patients respond to exersise therapy. This case is 43 year-old female patient. She complained episodic vertigo, nuchal pain, shoulder pain and general weakness. We treated her by Oriental medicine including herbal mediciation, acupuncture, manipulation and auricular acupucnture treatment. The intensity and frequency of vertigo were dramatically improved by auricular acupucnture.
