This clinical study aimed to evaluate how effective vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT) and Theta Binaural Beats (T-BB) are in reducing dizziness and anxiety in patients who continue to feel unsteady after successful treatment for a common inner ear condition called BPPV. A total of 56 adult patients were divided into three groups, each receiving different types of home-based exercises: Cawthorne-Cooksey Exercises (CCE), Brandt-Daroff Exercises (BDE), or CCE combined with T-BB. The study measured both physical balance and emotional symptoms such as anxiety. Results showed that all treatments helped, but patients who received CCE with T-BB showed the most improvement in both balance and anxiety levels. The findings suggest that combining physical and audio-based therapy may be especially helpful for people with ongoing dizziness after BPPV.
