What kind of tremor is associated with essential tremor?

The symptoms of essential tremor commonly include the shaking of the hands, and usually this means both hands. It starts usually on both sides, not necessarily, but the great majority of people who have essential tremor will notice it in both their hands during activity, during use, when they're writing, when they're eating or other activities. Essential tremor may also cause involuntary shaking of the head in some people, and it may be just the head, it's not necessarily the hands and head. It may just be the shaking of the head, and it can be in the rollatory fashion, but it can be a no-no or a yes-yes type of movement. Essential tremor can also cause voice tremor or a rhythmic shaking of the voice. And in some cases, maybe about a third of people will have some shaking of their legs too. Classically, essential tremor's cause is the shaking of the hands alone, but other body parts can be affected as well.
