Objective. The selection of special physical exercises for patients with late cerebellar ataxia based on the biomechanics of balance and gait and evaluation of the clinical effect of therapy. Material and methods. Twelve male patients with the diagnosis of late cerebellar ataxia were included in the study. The mean age was 49.33±8.80 years. The daily program of therapeutic exercises included training lessons with the exercise physician. The duration of training lessons was 25—30 minutes every day besides the independent task-repetitions 5—6 times a day during 12 days. To evaluate a clinical effect, the Scale for the assessment and rating of ataxia (SARA) was administered before the lessons and on the 12-th day of therapy. Results and conclusion. The authors developed the program of physical exercises for patients with late cerebellar ataxia based on the feeling of body weight and consecutive movements of the sole that were taken from techniques of classical dance steps. After 12 days of training, the total scores on SARA decreased (12.75±4.47 vs. 9.00±4.81, p<0.01) due to the decrease in the scores of gait (3.41±1.16 vs. 2.25±0.86, p<0.01) and stance (2.67±0.98 vs. 1.42±1.08, p<0.01). Therefore, special physical exercises are a necessary component of the therapy of late cerebellar ataxia.
