This study aims to compare Botox injections without Physical Therapy sessions to Botox
injections combined with Physical Therapy sessions for treatment of Cervical Dystonia. It is
expected that Botox combined with Physical Therapy will improve Cervical Dystonia symptoms
and quality of life more than Botox alone. It is also expected that Botox combined with
Physical Therapy will enhance neuroplasticity, or the ability of the brain to make new
connections, more than Botox alone at 4-5 weeks, and remain improved at 12 weeks, after Botox
injection.
