Reclaim Confidence In Movement With Dystonia
Specialized physical therapy that addresses how your nervous system and muscles work together.
Dystonia is a neurological movement disorder that causes muscles to contract when they’re not supposed to or stay on longer than intended. This can cause twisting, pulling, cramping, or postures that feel uncontrollable.
For many people, dystonia isn’t about muscle damage or lack of strength. It’s about how the brain and nervous system are organizing movement. Regardless of your symptoms, the experience is real — and often deeply frustrating.
Dystonia can show up in many ways. At NeuPath, we regularly work with:
Cervical dystonia
Focal limb dystonia
Task specific dystonia (Runner’s dystonia, musician’s dystonia, etc,.)
Functional dystonia
Common Symptoms of Dystonia Include:
Involuntary muscle contractions that cause repetitive movements
Abnormal or awkward postures
Tremors or shaking in the affected body part
Muscle tightness or cramping that may come and go
Sensory changes
Jerky or uncoordinated movements
Pain
Difficulty with tasks like writing, walking, or speaking
At NeuPath, we treat dystonia through a nervous-system-informed approach.
Our treatment program combines evidence-based strategies that support long-term improvement. Key components include:
Education and Empowerment informed patients are empowered patients. Understanding your condition helps you actively participate in your care and make confident, informed decisions.
Promote Neuroplasticity - the brain's ability to rewire itself - to help improve motor control, sensory perception, and body awareness.
Sensory - Motor Retraining restore normal movement by improving how the brain processes sensory input and produces motor responses.
Support Nervous System Regulation to reduce involuntary muscle action and create an optimal state for neuroplasticity.
