Hi,



If it is decided your falls and imbalance are secondary to poor equilibrium following resection of the acoustic neuroma then, there is vestibular therapy that can be ordered and this can help improve your condition. But this not necessarily cure you of imbalance, but can make you better.



Hope I have answered your query.

Let me know if I can assist you further.
