6ĭespite these considerable challenges, recent evidence suggests that individuals with cerebellar disease may benefit from long-term motor training. 5 It has therefore been reasoned that these patients may get limited benefit from rehabilitation that relies on motor learning. 4 However, efforts to restore normal movement are complicated because individuals with cerebellar disease also have deficits in motor learning. Without any available disease-modifying pharmacological treatments for ataxia, 3 physical therapy intervention is the primary treatment option. 2 These deficits lead to taxing and unsafe mobility. 1 These gait deviations have been closely linked to the severity of the individual's balance deficits. In walking, ataxia is evident by a shortened stride length, high step pattern, and decreased push-off and veering.
Individuals with cerebellar degenerative disease exhibit progressive worsening of motor coordination, or ataxia.
