Dystonia is a movement disorder that causes muscles to contract involuntarily, often leading to repetitive or twisting movements in different parts of the body. While the condition is not typically painful, the involuntary movements can really impact a person's daily life, but there are treatment options available. University of Utah Health neurologist and movement disorder specialist Panagiotis Kassavetis, MD, PhD, explains what dystonia is, the treatment options available, and why seeing a specialist or movement disorder clinic is so important to help manage dystonia.
