Brief Summary
This is an observational longitudinal study to investigate if negative illness perceptions predict less improvement in dizziness handicap following vestibular rehabilitation. Consecutive patients (n=260) who enter the vestibular rehabilitation programme at Guy's Hospital, London will be included. Questionnaires will be conducted immediately before, and after their final treatment. The main outcome will be the Dizziness Handicap Inventory after rehabilitation.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI)
DHI at discharge (controlling for baseline DHI in the final analysis). The DHI measures the perceived physically, functionally, and emotionally handicapping effects of dizziness although the total score will be used in this study. It consists of 25 questions, for example "Does walking down the aisle of a supermarket increase your problem?", and participants rate either 'Yes', 'No', or 'Sometimes'. The maximum score is 100 and higher scores represent higher levels of disability and activity restriction.
At discharge (final session of physiotherapy), an average of 10 weeks
Study Arms (1)
Dizzy group
Patients attending the dizziness and balance exercise programme at Guy's Hospital, London. Patients data will be included if they complete at least 4 sessions.
