physio treamtent must be practiced in close relationships with medication dosage. Hence they cannot be described in isolation. This is one area where the prescribing physician and the physio need to work closely together. That is if the focus is a resting tremor. If it is how do we maintain thoracic extension, how do we break freezing patterns then that could be discussed in isolation?? Please provide more direction

The only measure what we can take are
- divert the attention of the patient towards somthing resty...with out any tension
- PNF Eexs,
- co ordinated functionalmovements,
- music, rythmic.
