The treatment of imbalance is extremely variable and depends greatly
on the disorder being treated. For example, if the diagnosis is
Parkinson's disease, certain medications that contain levodopa may
be used for treatment. If a patient is diagnosed with multiple sclerosis,
medications that affect the immune system may be used. Physical
therapy exercises, especially techniques that strengthen leg muscles
are helpful for nearly all causes of imbalance. At our center, medical
treatment for imbalance is started together with physical therapy.
The therapist is made aware of the diagnosis so that rehabilitation
can be tailored to each specific case.
