Cervical dystonia

[Tracy Page]

55 yo female with idiopathic cervical dystonia using Botox injections for improved ROM & decreased pain. Wants to stop Botox & is inquiring about peptides or PRP for txt.
Thinking the suspected pathophysiology of  sporadic focal dystonia could be a defect of energy metabolism (mitochondrial complex I deficiency) – seems peptides focusing on cellular optimization would outweigh the use of PRP? Peptides to consider: BPC-157, cerebrolysin? Other thoughts & suggestions for txt? Thanks! Tracy

A possible etiology of idiopathic cervical dystonia is chronic subluxation of the first cervical vertebra.  It will require an experienced chiropractic physician to accurately diagnose and treat.

KPV 500 mcg po BID can  help reduce the chronic neuromuscular inflammation.

Thanks for the feedback, Mitchell.

I used KPV & she did fairly well (~ 40% improvement). She has been ruled out for cervical vertebra subluxation.
