Abstract:
Involuntary movements and emotional outbursts characteristic of Huntington's Chorea were controlled in a 60-yr-old male. Behavior therapy included relaxation training and clear adhesive tape to the face for tactile feedback as a cue to relaxation. Follow-up during a four-year period shows the treatment effects to be maintained.
