Any of you who have dystonia know how uncomfortable it can be. Thanks for all your suggestions. As you say Rosebud, I can't really afford to keep going even if it is working so I might as well give it up now. Just another stab at finding relief, stay tuned.

HI Evon
Did your chiropractor diagnose any vertebral misalingments? My father has visited a therapist who confirmed he has misalignments of the c1 and c5 vertebrae. This is what is restricting the blood flow to the brain and exacerbating his parkinsons. He has just started chiropractic treatment however this alone will not rectify the problem (in some people chiro adjustments can last only a few hours before the muscle tension in their body pulls it out again). The other people posting are right when they recommend muscle relaxation/massage as close as possible prior to the chiropractic adjustment.
