Vestibular rehabilitation (VR) is a conventional treatment method for peripheral balance disorders that effectively decreases symptoms. Lian gong [LG] is believed to benefit patients with dizziness and to reduce the impact of the condition on quality of life by stimulating visual fixation, attention, body balance, and neuroplasticity.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Objective\u2003The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of LG on the impact of dizziness on quality of life and fear of falling in primary health care patients.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Methods\u2003This was a two-arm, parallel randomized clinical trial that included 36 patients with dizziness not caused by central changes. After specific medical evaluations and indications for treatment, the participants were randomly assigned to 3 groups: the LG group (n\u2009=\u200911), the VR group (n\u2009=\u200911), and the control group (n\u2009=\u200914). The interventions were conducted collectively over a period of 12 weeks.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results\u2003Lian gong reduced the influence of dizziness on quality of life in physical (1.8 points, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.2\u20133.4), functional (4.0 points, 95% CI: 2.1\u20135.9), and emotional domains of quality of life (4.4 points, 95% CI: 1.7\u20137.2), with no differences compared with VR. There were similar concerns among the groups about the risk of falling.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusion\u2003Lian gong was shown to be an effective balance rehabilitation strategy to reduce the impact of dizziness on quality of life, with similar results to those of
