6:05 Have had left hand tremors for about 3 years. I get depressed because I can't play my guitar anymore. My VA doctor told me to try playing for 5 minutes at a time. I tried your breathing technique and it worked to calm the tremors. Was diagnosed with extreme anxiety. I love this breathing technique. Thank you.

I’m going to try these techniques with my husband who has stiff person syndrome. Although he can’t technically relax because he’s stiff but I try my best with whatever videos I find.
Hope they prove helpful for him.
Thanks for bringing this very informative video to us.
Greetings from South Carolina! Thank you for this video. I am a new subscriber. Do you have any suggestions for supplements for Essential Tremors?
Hello
Thank you for subscribing.
For supplements, the usual recommendations are caprylic acid, vitamin B1, GABA, vitamin B12 and antioxidant vitamins C and E.
Thank you so much, a had a Stroke in 2004 and my hand shacked a little no there is much worse and it's in the morning and until ca.14.00 kl, then it becomes more relaxed. But a am going to a dinner or birthday it shacked all the time.
Hey m also going through cerebral infraction may i know how much tym did it take to completely get ok
Have you heard of MRI Guided Ultrasound treatments where they shave your head and put you in a big type of machine which looks something like a decompression chamber, the machine they put divers in after they come up too fast and develop "the bends."
Yes I have heard about it
Thank you,
After how long does one do those exercises for, to see results?
If done regularly, the results are visible after a month too. But continue them for as long as is required.
Could you please talk about the basis of the correct hand movement that starts from the elbow and shoulder? Does the correct and stable hand movement really start with moving the elbow and not the wrist? I wonder about this because I injured my wrist a long time ago and now I suffer from confusion in the lack of flexibility and the inability to start a steady movement. I often start movement from my wrist, which causes me constant pain, especially when writing at the table or writing on the blackboard. It causes pain in the wrist as a result of the lack of flexibility. I hope you talk about it, you are the only one who gives this excellent explanation🙏
Hello
All upper limb movements depend on the activity that is performed. Also, if you had an injury, it appears to be weakness of the wrist and hand muscles. Could you be more specific as to what was the injury?
@@therapywithdrprabhjot It was a sprained wrist.
@user-ef9pl1bd3n how old is this injury? And how was it treated?
@@therapywithdrprabhjot I sprained my wrist 4 years ago. I went to the doctor at that time and only had an X-ray done. The doctor told me that there was no fracture or problem. He said that if there was something there, there would be swelling in the area, but I never had any swelling or blueness. It was just that the pain came and went over and over again. I tried doing stretching and strengthening exercises, but it didn't work because I think the problem is a loss of flexibility in wrist movement.
I am 25 years old. I hope that you have recognized my problem as a result of your experience, Doctor🙏
Hi m going through cerebral infraction its been 1.5 months may i know how much longer it will take to heal
Please upload a video on tremor control of head
Thank you for the suggestion
Conventional wisdom will not recommend hypnosis for tremors for various reasons but experimenting with hypnosis won't hurt and not only will it not hurt, it will give you a sense of self-confidence in combating this disorder.
I agree with your theory.
ET while Public speaking and holding the Mic. Exercise has been helping.
Glad to know that. You can also try Mindfulness exercises

Simple hypnosis can help you and you don't have to go to a hypnotherapist.
Pls tell me the treatment of legs tremors
Hello
I remember you telling me about orthostatic tremors.
Have you tried the vitamin supplements and the postural exercises that I linked in the reply?
I have shaky hands it comes and goes away, I smoke, also alcoholic, I have depression, anxiety, also super stressed, trust issues also over thinking, to add I don't sleep very well, my diet is a crap too. Taking B12 deficiency, I'm trying to quit smoking and alcohol, started taking B12 vitamin supplement, will this shaking of the hands go away? TIA for answering I also have stage 1 hypertension
Hello
Thank you for sharing.
As yout shaky hands appear to have a basis in your lifestyle and stress, kindly be firm in abstaining from smoking and alcohol. Also, please consult a psychologist to manage your stress.
@@therapywithdrprabhjot Thanks for your advice, I wish I can tell you all about my stressors so that you can see the big picture but I cant its to personal. I will talk to a psychologist when I have the budget for it. For now my plan is I just have to leave with it and drink my vitamins abstain from my vices leave a healthier life style, sleep at least 6 hours a day, move away from my stressors not over think and just move on with life. Would that be a great plan for now?
@hitmanyori1230 yes it appears so
Good luck and hope you are able to overcome your stressors and lead a healthy life.
@@therapywithdrprabhjot Thank you for your advice I will talk to a psychologist when I have the budget for it. My plan for now is to abstain from vices, sleep at least 6 hours a day, leave a healthier life style go back to at least having 40 minutes of working out or cardio work at least 5 to 6 times a week. Drink my B12 vitamins. Make sure to eat good food. Move away from my stressors and not overthink I have to move on with life. I wish I could tell you all about what my stressors and going through so that you can see the big picture its too personal. Thanks again
@@therapywithdrprabhjot I will try my best to share my progress in the future, I will do the tips on this vid and other vids that could help in this condition, I'm only 40 years old and there are no family history about Alzheimer's disease at all.
Hello
If we all can agree that tremors are related to the nervous system, might we also agree that hypnosis can program the nerves to behave calmly and steady in various circumstances? Can we not hypnotize ourselves into believing the the nerves in our hands will be calm and steady in tense and arousing situations?
Hello
As I don't have experience in this area , one can explore the possibility of the same. Are you interested in practicing this or want to try this for your tremors?
@@therapywithdrprabhjot. When you say you don't have experience in this area, I'm assuming you are referring to hypnosis. I do not have professional experience in this field either BUT I have been experimenting with hypnosis for years in the form of writing and vocal affirmation. If the mind has domination over our bodily functions, and it does.....it can speed up our heart rate, lower our blood pressure, and cause us to perspire. If the mind can affect such bodily responses as these, surely it can influence the nervous system. Don't positive changes take place when the mind goes into meditation? This is a prime example of the mind's ability to affect change in the body.
Hello mam, I hàd been having tremors in my right hand for the past 30 years. Though the medicines, mostly propranol and alprozolam, gave little relief the problem exist still. I am 65 and retired. Could you please advise.
Hello
These medicines are related to high BP and anxiety. If these are your primary reasons, then uou can try mindfulness exercises.

Hi! My left hand is shaking when i play billiards only. I don’t know why? Do you have any suggestions?
Hello
If it is only with billiards, then it has more to do with nervousness to play or not able to take good shots. Kindly practice more.
Iam not nervous because iam just playing for fun. What can i do to contol the shaking of my hand when playing billiards. Please help me.
Can you address the idea that you are not playing well or don't feel coordinated in the game and it makes your hand shake?
How old are you?
Do you agree or disagree that the nerves can be taught how to behave? If the mind can influence the heart, blood pressure, and the glands, can it not affect change in the nervous system? When tremors occur, aside from heredity, it is my opinion that something has caused the nerves in the hand to be derailed or go astray, the wrong message or messages have been sent to the hands. In order to get these messages back on track, you have to re-wire or re-program your mind/brain. You should sit down in a quiet place with pen and paper (if you are able to write) and write a Master Induction. If you are unable to write because of your tremors, i suggest you vocalize affirmations or suggestions. This Induction, over time, will give the nerves and muscles a sort of 'blueprint' to follow but you must read it and vocalize it on a regular basis.
It is an intriguing suggestion and it may be a possible way to overcome tremors.
@@therapywithdrprabhjot. When one is constantly and repeatedly making suggestions to the mind over a period of time, it imbues the person with a sense of self-confidence...a self-confidence that will be instrumental in how the body reacts in certain situations but you have to tell your body how it should react in tense situations...you must direct it to a mode of calmness and steadiness.
Please try to use minfulness exercises as well which help both with calming down and taking control of tremors.
Mam i have left hand tremore i am going to neurology he say that this is essential tremore but now 20 days left my tremor are increased and my headace also starting now and night time my left hand muscle contract and relax also plz help

For my hand tremors exercises are not giving any good results.My Neurologist has advised me to take
Ciplar LA 40 tablets
Now he is planning to give
Ciplar LA 80, then 160, 400
Pl advice Madam
These medicines do help with tremors.
As for exercise, I cannot comment as I don't know what regime you were following.
You need to practice being calm. If you are a literate (one capable of reading and writing), you should be able to put yourself under hypnosis and give yourself suggestions that will resolve your tremor issues. You should know that your MIND is capable of doing things you thought were impossible.
@@therapywithdrprabhjot. Do you find that when you become excited your tremors become worse?
Is there any problem in using 1 kg weight instead of half kg for hand tremor Half kg dumbell is not available
It depends on the tolerance of a person and the extent of weakness in the hands.
Thank you for your timely reply without delay. Bought 2 1kg dumpells and started exercise. I 'm a Parkinson patient for 10 years, taking medications from NIMHANS and going on with exercise and simple yoga therapy and can manage household work with all the limitations of PD. I m a retired Higher Secondary teacher. aged around 58. Watching your videos
@vimisanthosh5864 thanks for sharing this. 1kg dumbells can work as well but usually the number of repetitions are kept low to avoid fatigue in various muscle groups.
Thank you .
