Abstract

Objectives We report 2 cases of isolated head tremor treated by Functional CerebroSpinal Therapy (FCST) and acupuncture. These cases report efficacy of FCST on isolated head tremor. Methods In both cases, patients who experienced isolated heard tremor visited 10 times and were treated with FCST and acupucture. Improvements of head tremor was measured by a Visual Analogue Scale(VAS), MDS-UPDRS 2.10 and MDS-UPDRS 3.18. Results In Case 1, after treatment, VAS of tremor decreased from 10 to 0, MDS-UPDRS 2.10 from 2 to 0, MDS-UPDRS 3.18 from 4 to 0. In Case 2, after treatment, VAS of tremor was decreased from 10 to 2, MDS-UPDRS 2.10 from 2 to 1, MDS-UPDRS 3.18 from 4 to 2. Conclusions This improvement might suggest FCST can be effective for patients who suffer isolated head tremor.
