Thanks very much for your comment, although of course I'm so sorry to hear you're dealing with dystonia. I know how exhausting it is. It's interesting that your instincts led you to experimenting with your right arm. In my experience what works best is when we're able to understand the principles behind the healthy movement on the non-affected side and then apply those principles to the left side as a "blueprint" experience. Of course, good guidance helps (and for most people is essential). Wishing you the very best.
