MEDICAL & TREATMENT:
CLINICAL ASPECTS OF TS
Main Page

The information on these pages, along with our publications and videos, is directed to Medical and Allied Professionals and to those with TS, their friends and families, and to the community to advance understanding of Tourette Syndrome. TSA  funds research that will ultimately find the cause of and cure for TS and, at the same time, lead to improved medications and treatments. TSA has published a"Guide to Diagnosis and Treatment of Tourette Syndrome", as well as many medical articles and videos for professionals and families.

In partnership with the CDC, TSA conducts FREE Medical seminars throughout the U.S. The partnership has produced medical and allied professional education materials in print, CD, DVD, and web video formats, many of which are viewable on this website, and distributed free of charge to attendees  at these sessions. (Click here for more information about the live presentations, and how you may request a program at your clinic, hospital, medical or allied professional conference or meeting).
