Synopsis:
The simple everyday acts of walking across a room, sitting in a chair, or simply sitting still may be frustratingly difficult, if not impossible, for the millions of Americans living with neurologic movement disorders. Movement disorders are a group of diseases and syndromes affecting the ability to produce and control movement. This Sourcebook provides health information about neurological movement disorders, their symptoms, causes, diagnostic tests, and treatments. Readers will learn about Essential Tremor, Parkinson's Disease, Dystonia, and many other early-onset and adult-onset movement disorders. Information about mobility and assistive technology aids is included, along with a glossary and a listing of additional resources.
