Treatment of spasmodic dysphonia with homeopathic medicine: a clinical  
case report
Steve An Xue, Luc de Schepper and Grace Jianping Hao

Botulinum toxin (Botox) injection is the only conventional medical  
treatment available for patients with spasmodic dysphonia (SD). Some  
patients are reluctant to receive Botox treatment due to concerns  
about unknown long-term side effects, expense, and dependence on  
repeated injections. The purpose of the study was to report the  
perceptual and physiological changes in the vocal functions of an SD  
patient treated with classical homeopathy. The results were similar to  
a previous case report: classical homeopathy seems to be capable of  
amelioratiny SD symptoms beyond the short-term effects of Botox  
injections. Although the physiological mechanism of homeopathic  
healing is not fully accounted for by the current bio-medical models,  
it may be an effective therapeutic alternative for some SD patients.
