To perform the Brandt-Daroff exercise:
- Start in an upright, seated position.
- Move into the lying position on one side with your nose pointed up at about a 45-degree angle.
- Remain in this position for about 30 seconds (or until the vertigo subsides, whichever is longer), then move back to the seated position.
- Repeat on the other side.
