Dystonia Europe has the pleasure of running a training course for qualified physiotherapists in the treatment of Cervical Dystonia.
The course will be led by Johanna Blom who has 18 years experience treating dystonia and training other professionals. She has written a book about cervical dystonia and spasticity and in collaboration with Dystonia Europe has developed a digital platform for cervical dystonia with detailed descriptions and animations of treating cervical dystonia with physiotherapy.
We also hope to have a small presentation from a neurologist on how physiotherapy can help dystonia patients.
This course will be held in The National Hospital for Neurology & Neurosurgery, Queen Square, London, WC1N 3BG and any qualified physiotherapists from the area and beyond can apply to take the course.
It is initially a 1 day course which may be followed up with another 2 day course if attendees would like to take their training even further.
The course will only be £25/€30 per person which includes all refreshments and lunch on the day.
This is possible due to funding from the now closed charity Action for Dystonia, Diagnosis, Education and Research, ADDER).
Venue: The National Hospital for Neurology & Neurosurgery, Queen Square, London, WC1N 3BG
Date: Saturday, 7th March, 2026
Time: 8.30am till 4.00pm.
