I put my foot in a bowl of hot water (as hot as I can bear) for about 15 minutes and then my wife manipulates my foot and toes (physio showed us what to do) for about 10 minutes.

I do this especially if I am starting to experience some discomfort just before I go to bed. This works brilliantly for me and is very pleasant too!

I have also found that Amantadine eases my dystonic left foot although I know this drug is usually added for dyskinesia. I was taking 2 x 100mg of Amantadine a day but by adding a third at around 5pm my night time dystonia is far less. I know that Amantadine taken this late in the day causes insomnia with some people but it does not affect me this way. But then as we all know only too well we are all different.
