all I know is that Ataxia is a condition for neurological signs and symptoms of inconsistent movement of muscles. Usually its caused by Focal lesions in the brain, Vit. B12 Deficiency, could also be hereditary. However, there is no specific treatment for ataxia- yet but I hope someone will invent it. The only therapy is physical therapy including exercises along with supports like brace or splints and walker to prevent falls

Hope I help ;-)
