Reclaim your life from dystonia

Defeating Dystonia is an organization built to end FTSD. The mission is straightforward: to help cure as many people with FTSD as possible through a structured motor retraining approach, and to make that approach mainstream and accessible so patients can find it quickly, understand it, and apply it, instead of spending years sifting through noise and dead ends.

Right now, when people search dystonia online, they are often met with major hospital websites that still describe it as incurable and lifelong. For patients, that message can be devastating.

Part of the reason patients keep encountering that message is the research-to-practice lag. Public-facing clinical information is not always updated to reflect newer research, leaving a gap between the research literature and what is communicated in everyday clinical practice and public-facing resources. Defeating Dystonia exists to close that gap by making the path to cure easier to find, clearer to understand, and practical to follow.
