Physical Therapy: Physical therapy is important. A physical therapist can offer strength and flexibility enhancing exercises that will help maintain the muscles, and provide adaptive devices to aid in performing daily activities.
Occupational Therapy: Hand tremors can be adjusted through occupational therapy allowing you to remain independent in daily tasks.
Medication and Medical Care: Another aspect is the importance of regular control by a neurologist or some kind of specialist in muscular disorders. They also suggest any drugs that can be used to enhance muscle strength and tremor control.
Lifestyle Modifications: Adjusting your home and work setting to fit you, and familiarity with ergonomic instruments can also be of great help alongside practicing relaxation methods.

We have good results in muscular dystrophy. You need to consult a stem cell therapist for the proper treatment.
