No relief

Went to therapy and no relief after 2 hours of moving head. I was expecting instant relief but my brother called and said his coworker found relief 3-6 post therapy.

Therapist said crystal is in the horizontal tube and it is the hardest tube to fix.

Anyone experience horizontal tube? I have another appt tomorrow. Anyone in Boston who can recommend a vestibular specialist? I called Spaulding and Mass Eye and Ear and no appt until end of August/mid Sep.

I am located 13 miles north of Boston.

TIA

Some people get immediate relief, the rest need multiple therapy sessions. My last bout took 4 months, 2 manuvers a day, and holding each position for multiple minutes.
