Post Sensory Tricks - geste antagoniste

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3607913/
Tic Modulation Using Sensory Tricks
Rebecca Wolf Gilbert
Tremor Other Hyperkinet Mov (N Y). 2013; 3: tre-03-115-3129-1.
Published online 2013 March 26.
PMCID: PMC3607913

Quote:
A sensory trick, or geste antagoniste, is defined as a physical gesture (such as a touch on a particular body part) that mitigates the production of an involuntary movement. This phenomenon is most commonly described as a feature of dystonia. Here we present a case of successful modulation of tics using sensory tricks.
