Head tilt and imbalances in visual processing

Content: They can also be related to more advanced conditions such as dystonia, a disorder that causes muscles to contract involuntarily. Other symptom of dystonia may include dragging one leg, foot cramping, uncontrollable blinking, and difficulty talking. Dystonias arise from problems in an area of the brain called the basal ganglia that helps regulate muscle contractions and movement. Basal ganglia disorders are not uncommon and include other conditions such as restless leg syndrome, tics, anxiety, tremors, cramping, muscle rigidity, and more. Head tilt and imbalances in visual processing
A chronic head tilt can also arise due to how the eyes process visual information. If vision from one eye is being interpreted as coming in lower or higher than the other eye, the brain will compensate by tilting the head to make vision appear more equal. How well your eyes can pursue a target moving both smoothly or in small jumps in various directions informs the functional neurologist as to how your brain is working. For instance, a poorly functioning cerebellum, the area of the brain that plays a role in balance and motor coordination, causes poor function with visual tracking that can lead to a head tilt. Also, if certain eye muscles are weak, exercises to strengthen those can help correct head tilt. This is very general overview of a complex topic, but the bottom line is if you have a head tilt a functional neurology approach can help improve your brain function.
