Edit
I started having the mildest of symptoms that slowly turned into Spastic Torticolis, aka Cervical Dystonia, in early 2009. By late 2009, my symptoms had developed to the point of being fairly difficult and with some pain. I was in late 2009 diagnosed by a chiropractor. I am now seeing a neurologist, and just last week received my first Botox injections, 5, 3 into my affected side and 2 in the other. Not much improvement yet, it takes about 4 weeks to take full effect. No real side effects, either.

In addition I have been working with many many things to try to heal this condition. I have found some improvement. The neurologist noticed I was doing fairly well when I saw her last week. I have been working with diet, exercise, and energy therapies. Here is a list of everything I've been doing:

physical therapy stretches (that I learned for my neck from a physical therapist)
gratitude (remembering things I'm grateful for)
release worry, negative thinking
laughter
healthy eating make sure getting all needed nutrients (supplements as needed)
move, exercise (sweat releases toxins. drink water.)
make effort at least several times daily to keep head towards normal position
sing
8 glasses water/day (I've been able to get about 7 or 8)
8-10 vegs + fruits/day (I've been able to get about 7 per day)
relaxation regularly during daytimes
meditation
yoga from yoga zone book, w/mindful breathing (Yoga For Life by Finger)
bare feet on earth 30 min/day (earth is supposedly detoxing)
sun on head 30/min/day when poss. (body generates vit D)
reduce stress as much as possible
EFT tapping (Emotional Freedom Technique)
Afformation: Why am I safe now?
Qi Gong
vit D3 supplement
raw milk
fish oil supplement (1000mg EPA DHA per day)
liquid calcium citrate + magnesium supplement
