Explanation:

The Epley Maneuver is a well - known treatment for Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV). BPPV is caused by the displacement of otoliths (small calcium carbonate crystals) in the inner ear. The Epley Maneuver works by repositioning these otoliths back to their normal location.
Meniere Disease is typically managed with dietary changes, medications (such as diuretics, anti - vertiginous drugs), and in some cases, surgical interventions. Acute Labyrinthitis is usually treated with corticosteroids (to reduce inflammation) and anti - vertigo medications. Central Vertigo has a variety of causes (such as stroke, multiple sclerosis) and treatment is focused on the underlying cause.
