Acknowledgements I would like to thank and acknowledge the staff at AUT University for the support and assistance I received during my thesis. To my supervisors Justin Keogh and Justin Kavanagh, thank you for all the invaluable support, feedback, time and guidance you have given me throughout this process. I would also like to thank the New Zealand Essential Tremor Support Group and Susan Yoffe of the Auckland branch. Without your help and support this research would not have been possible. Also a special thank you to all the participants for their great effort, time, support, laughs and shared tea and biscuits. In addition I would like to acknowledge my business partners for their support in providing me with the use of the clinic and time away when I needed it. Many thanks to Matthew Wood for all his advice and guidance throughout my studies. To my family, Greg, Ros and Richard and, my good friends and flatmates Cam and Julia, thanks for all your help and understanding. Ethical approval for this research was granted by the Northern Regional Y Ethics committee; reference NTY/10/03/025. iii
