Vertigo relief app

BPPV is the most common vestibular disorder, yet sufferers face long waits for ENT/vestibular specialists and struggle to perform repositioning maneuvers like the Epley correctly at home from static diagrams. Without guided head-positioning, episode tracking, and recurrence coaching, patients self-treat incorrectly, relapse (recurrence occurs in roughly half of cases), and miss daily activities.
