Summary

The treatment of tremor is challenging, and therapeutic options are often limited and non-specific. Treatment always has to be individualized, and apart from the objective severity of tremor, significant importance should be given to subjective severity and impact of the tremor on the patient. Supportive non-pharmacologic and non-surgical methods should be incorporated into the treatment regimen. Finally, surgical therapy is proven and effective in several tremor syndromes and should be offered to eligible patients.
