Could Brain Crystal Exercises Help A Person Having Balance Problem?
mY HUSBAND IS 82 AND HAS A HORRIBLE BALANCE PROBLEM. One doctor says it is Parkinson s and also the beginning of Alzheimer s but he had a stroke last year and this marked the beginning of his problem. He falls, uses a cane but has progressed to a walker, and someone mentioned brain crystal exercises. Do you have any ideas on this? Could there be an answer for us? He is going to have a lumbar spine MRI on Tuesday, and has been diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy. Where can I get help?

I don't think brain crystal exercises will help him.it's useful in specific variety of vertigo called as BPPV.
in this case there are lot of causes for balance disorder like peripheral neuropathy, Parkinsonismy and stroke.
for parkinsonism take tab syndopa.
for stroke take tab ecosprin and rosuvastatin.
control BP and sugar.
Balancing exercise may help him.
