Rehabilitation for the equilibrium dysfunction is effective. The previous studies have been reported it by meta-analysis. However, on the other hand, although the relief of symptoms is obtained by the rehabilitation, about 30% of the patients continue to show the equilibrium dysfunction such as dizziness. In addition, remission is not obtained at all in 2% of the patients. For these patients, we need new techniques to enhance the effect of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation effects is brought by the motor learning in the cerebellum that enhance the new cerebellar vestibular nerve pathway or existing neural pathways. In the present study, we investigate whether rehabilitation for equilibrium dysfunction combined by tDCS over the cerebellum would be more effective compared to the rehabilitation alone.
