Feedback Facility-assisted Balance Training in a Patient with Multiple System Atrophy: A Case Report

Multiple system atrophy is a rare neurodegenerative disease with poor prognosis. Furthermore, there are no pharmacology or notable rehabilitation strategies available to prevent the worsening of the disease. This case report assessed the outcome of feedback facility-assisted balance training in combination with physical therapy in a 61-year-old man. The patient participated in 30 training sessions over six weeks for 30 minutes each that involved balance training. His static and dynamic balance abilities were improved on the Berg Balance Scale, Trunk Impairment Scale, Functional Independence Measure, and Functional Reach.
