Abstract

Vertigo is a specific kind of dizziness, sense that you or your environment is moving or spinning, even though there is no movement. Vertigo can evoke syncope or pre-syncope presents with “faint” feelings of dizziness, results from global hypo perfusion of the brain. This condition impairs daily activity of people with vertigo. A study reported that in Indonesia, vertigo is suffered by 40-50% of population and only about 15% of people with vertigo went to the doctor (Diza, 2008, Widiantoro, 2010). Benign positional vertigo (BPV) is vertigo that caused by the movement of debris in the posterior semicircular canal inside the ear. In BPV, descending due to gravity when a position is changed causing a temporary hydrolymphatic drag on the receptor in the ear canal and thereby causing vertigo. Epley and Vestibular Rehabilitation Method as standard medical rehabilitation for BPV seemed to be rarely used due to discomfort. Sholat is a series of comfortable movement that connects the human soul and its Creator. Wudlu that are performed before prayer, can activate the acupuncture points on the washed body. This study aimed to know the effect of wudlu and sholat as a comfort rehabilitation to reduce vertigo. This study is a quasi experimental study using the Single Subject Randomized Time Series Design. The research subject is a 21 years old man with BPV. The study was conducted over 27 days, with 7 days without any treatment and 20 days with treatment. The variables observed were vertigo intensity, Romberg Test, Babinsky Test, and the concomitant’s complaints. The comfortable feeling was recorded using modified comfortable assessment. Data from the study were analyzed descriptively in the change of variables observed. This study results showed that wuldu and sholat reduce all variables observed as the symptom of vertigo. The subject felt comfortable during the treatment. The results of this study suggested a basis for further research.
