The goal of the study was to review the definition of ataxia, a movement disorder in which there is in coordination of movements and postural control, its subtypes, causes, to analyze the assessment methods in rehabilitation ant the treatment modalities from the point of view of the rehabilitation team. We observed that after a long term rehabilitation treatment, the patients with ataxia improved their balance and postural reactions, increased postural stabilization, developed new upper extremity functions and independent, functional gait. Physical therapy applications play a crucial part in the rehabilitation treatment of ataxia. Of major importance are the evaluation of the patient and the establishment of the treatment methods keeping in mind that every patient has a particular form of evolution of the disease.

Rehabilitation of patients with low back pain is very important because the incidence of this symptom is very high among all ages, but especially after forty years. The rehabilitation team must perform a detailed clinical exam and an assessment of the functional limitations and functional goals to achieve at the end of the treatment for every patient. The goals of the therapy are normalization of impairments in flexibility, strength and endurance, and of course, reducing of pain.
