RÉSUMÉ

Dystonia is a movement disorder characterised by involuntary, extended, patterned, and often repetitive muscle contractions of skeletal muscles, frequently causing twisting movements or abnormal postures. Recent studies have shown that stress and coffee consumption can precipitate dystonic attacks. Many people, due to their diligent life schedules and increased physical inactivity due to less work-life balance, have been identified as the major cause of this neurological movement disorder. The action of caffeine and other CNS stimulants may be related to dystonic episodes in an individual. Cervical dystonia is specifically characterised by involuntary muscle contraction of the trapezius muscle, pain in the cervical region, numbness in one or both arms, and restricted movement. Proper understanding and management of spasmodic torticollis are necessary to avoid discomfort and progress towards a healthy life. The case study aims to highlight the role of physical activity along with proper work-life balance to live a healthy lifestyle and minimise the frequency of muscle spasm attacks caused by spasmodic torticollis. The role of clinicians such as physicians and clinical pharmacists in understanding and managing the disease is critical and crucial for a better quality of life and leading a stress-free life.
