    I use one. It helps me with the stiff neck and tension in neck and shoulders. I have vision problems from my meniers. It helps a lot for this. Just in general it helps but by no means takes it away. It is worth the couple weeks of a little relief. Hope this helps.

    Hi Miranda,

    I know that many chiropractors are trained in the Epley Maneuver, which is very helpful with the type of vestibular symptoms brought on by BPPV, or "crystals in the inner ear."  BPPV can sometimes look like and feel like Meniere's, but it isn't Meniere's.  Chiropractic adjustment in general wouldn't help MD. But chiropractors who know the Epley Maneuver can often help a person with BPPV.

    Take good care,

    J-
