Treatment for Dystonia – there is not a single treatment that works worldwide. Instead, for Dystonia doctors use a variety of therapies (medications, surgery, and other treatments such as physical therapy, splinting, stress management, and biofeedback) aimed at reducing or eliminating muscle spasms and pain. Since response to drugs varies among individuals and even in the same person over time, the most effective therapy is often individualized.

Each case must be individually analyzed and doctors will provide solutions just for you, keeping in mind your condition, treatment timeframe and other factors that may or may not alter the treatment process.

The following are different treatments being used for Dystonia
botox treatment for dystonia  
alternative treatment for dystonia    
herbal treatment for dystonia    
surgical treatment for dystonia    
physical therapy treatment for dystonia    
treatment for dystonia in rsd

    My Name is Diana Beam and right now I am in the hospital in Ojai CA.  I had a severe attack of my Cervical Dystonia at 1:am in my daughter's boyfriend's airstream trailer here in Ojai.  I used to live in Kalispell, MT. from April 2003- Nov. 2008.  I moved back to my home state in Nov. 2008, because my daughter and her boyfriend offered me a place to stay in his airstream trailer her in Ojai. I accepted there offer, but they didnt know how bad off I was (am). Instead of getting better I have only gotten worse, because so many people dont understand that I have what I have. My boyfriend Paul Smith who still lives in Kalispell basiclly kicked me out of his home because he thought I was insane. I got put into a private hospital at first then they put me into Montana State hospital. All together I was in both hospitals for a total of 33 days. I was scared to death and I kept telling them I was just depressed and they were saying I was bi-polar. By the time I was released they did admit that I WAS just depressed. I lost my boyfriend and a few of my girlfriends, because they didnt understand my condition.  One of my girlfriends, Jane Ingle said I seemed to be better when I was drinking and smoking pot, but I didnt feel any different. This is all I have to say for right now, because I am typing this at a hospital ER room with Dr. Clawson and a nurse Darren here by my side. Thank GOD for them. They are saving my life!
    Also I have been seeing a chiropractor Dr. Syd Dillion in Ventura, CA. who is also been helping me.  Most everyone here in Ojai has  been helping me.   Amen.
