Chronic dizziness has a prevalence of up to 25% in the community, and 1 in 10 working age adults and 1 in 5 older people report some degree of handicap due to dizziness. Dizziness can lead to reduced quality of life, anxiety and emotional distress, loss of fitness, unsteadiness and vulnerability to falling. Reviews of the management of dizziness have concluded that no medication has well-established value or is suitable for long-term use, and vestibular rehabilitation (VR) is now recommended as the treatment of choice. Professor Lucy Yardley has carried out trials showing that chronic dizziness can be treated effectively using a self-help booklet to teach patients vestibular rehabilitation exercises that promote neurological adaptation and skill and confidence in balance. These exercises are carried out for 10 minutes twice daily at home, and involve gently increasing the speed of making normal head movements. However, brief support from a trained nurse was provided in these trials, and this model of managing dizzy patients has not been taken up due to a lack of skills and resources in primary care.
