Randomized Controlled TrialA randomized study of botulinum toxin versus botulinum toxin plus physical therapy for treatment of cervical dystonia.
Physical therapy (PT) for cervical dystonia is not well studied, and the underlying physiological effects are not known. ⋯ PT is a potential adjunct in patients with cervical dystonia who report suboptimal benefits with BoNT therapy. PT related benefits in cervical dystonia are likely mediated through modulation of sensorimotor plasticity.
