Megan Day is a Certified Canine Rehabilitation Practitioner (CCRP).
Has successfully used this technique to treat my human patients for BPPV, and am finding good success in treating my canine patients as well. In fact, one sweet guy came in last week and couldn’t stand. He had started having nystagmus and dysequalibrium for about 24 hours prior. He had been worsening over that time to the point that the owners had to help him get up and carry him into the clinic. I performed the treatment maneuver and he was able to get up, and walk out of the clinic! He was still dizzy and not very steady on his feet, but he made great gains in one treatment!
The other dogs I have seen recently haven’t had as remarkable improvement immediately, but have improved significantly in the 24-48 hours post treatment. This is more of the response that I tell the owners to expect. I will most often perform another treatment 3-5 days after the first one, and then if there are any more lingering symptoms, we will start balance therapy to help bring their function back to normal or as close to normal as possible. I love to see these dogs walk (or get carried) in my door as the response is often quick and dramatic and I love being able to help these guys out! Oh, and I did treat this in a feline friend once as well!
