Description
Summary:ABSTRACT In literature there is a growing evidence that in cervical dystonia (CD) rehabilitation, both in person and remotely, is an efficacious add on treatment to botulinum neurotoxins (BoNT) injections, but there is no consensus about protocols. We present here two rehabilitation programs implemented by our neuro‐rehabilitative multidisciplinary team. The enclosed video clips show exercises to be performed at home as self‐rehabilitation program, and exercises presented by a physiotherapist for a telerehabilitation program. These two protocols may be helpful for integrating rehabilitation with BoNT treatment in CD.
