Find Clarity in Your Movement Health Journey
When your body moves in ways you can’t control, it can feel like you’ve lost connection with yourself. The involuntary muscle contractions, the twisting postures, the frustration of not understanding why – we understand how overwhelming dystonia can be. At Oracle Genomics, we’re here to provide the answers you need through our comprehensive Dystonia Gene Panel, giving South Africans the genetic insights necessary for proper diagnosis and treatment planning.
Understanding Your Dystonia Gene Panel
Dystonia isn’t just one condition – it’s a family of movement disorders with complex genetic roots. Our advanced panel uses Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to examine multiple genes simultaneously, providing a complete picture of your genetic predisposition. This isn’t just a test; it’s a roadmap to understanding your body’s unique neurological blueprint.
We analyse genes associated with various dystonia types, from early-onset generalised dystonia to focal dystonias affecting specific body parts. The comprehensive nature of this testing means you get answers without the need for multiple separate tests, saving you time, money, and emotional energy.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you’re experiencing:
- Unexplained muscle contractions or spasms that won’t relax
- Involuntary twisting movements in your neck, limbs, or torso
- Tremors or shaking that interfere with daily activities
- Family history of movement disorders or neurological conditions
- Symptoms that began in childhood or early adulthood
- Previous inconclusive neurological evaluations
Many South Africans live with undiagnosed dystonia for years, often misattributing symptoms to stress or other conditions. Early genetic testing can prevent this diagnostic odyssey and get you on the right treatment path sooner.
Why Genetic Testing Matters for Your Neurological Health
Knowing your genetic status transforms your healthcare journey from uncertainty to empowerment:
- Accurate Diagnosis: Move beyond symptom management to understanding the root cause of your condition
- Personalised Treatment: Guide your neurologist in selecting the most effective medications and therapies
- Family Planning Insights: Understand inheritance patterns for informed family decisions
- Peace of Mind: Replace anxiety with knowledge and a clear path forward
- Early Intervention: Identify at-risk family members before symptoms develop
