"I receive Dysport injections every 3 months for the treatment of cervical dystonia. It improves my ability to control my moderate to severe compensatory no-no tremor. It helps with pain by relaxing the constant twisting and pulling of overactive muscles."

"I have been switched to Dysport a month ago from Botox, which had become increasingly less effective for my cervical dystonia. I feel remarkably better with less of the turning sensation to the left, more flexibility, and increased comfort. It started taking effect on Day 2 vs. a week with Botox. So glad my neurologist switched to the toxin."
