Possible modulation of the amplitude and frequency of resting parkinsonian tremor by touching the trapezius muscle

Abstract The pathophysiological mechanism of resting tremor in Parkinson's disease remains obscure. Spinal/peripheral mechanisms may modulate oscillatory activity from central origin, thereby changing amplitude and frequency of tremor in Parkinson's disease.
