Treatment options would be based on the type of<unk>  the patient has. If possible, incorporating rest earlier to symptom onset has shown to have greater improvement in symptoms for Writer's cramp. Physical Therapy Physical therapy is commonly used as an adjunct or main form of treatment for<unk> , however more studies for its benefit are needed. Bass guitarist and instructor Scott Devine said that he wears a glove while playing bass guitar because of the condition. He finds that the glove stops the involuntary finger movements. He says it works for him but does not suggest that it may work for everyone with the condition. Medications Anticholinergics such as Artane can be prescribed for off-label use, as some sufferers have had success. Benzodiazepines, such as Clonazepam, can be used as a muscle relaxant. Other oral medications have been studied for different types of<unk> , such as baclofen, tetrabenazine, amantadine, antipsychotics, and amphetamine Procedures This condition is often treated with injections of botulinum neurotoxin type A (BoNT/A). BoNT/A reduces the symptoms of the disorder but it is not a cure for dystonia. Since the root of the problem is neurological, doctors have explored sensorimotor retraining activities to enable the brain to "rewire" itself and eliminate dystonic movements. The work of several doctors such as Nancy Byl and Joaquin Farias has shown that sensorimotor retraining activities and proprioceptive stimulation can induce neuroplasticity, making it possible for patients to recover substantial function that was lost to<unk> . For some dystonias, Deep brain stimulation may be considered where BoNT treatment fails. If the dystonia is cause by an underlying nerve entrapment, surgical decompression has shown to have improvement in some cases.
