   Tremors are symmetric about a midpoint within the movement, and both portions of the movement occur at the same speed. Unlike the other hyperkinetic movements, tremors lack both the jerking associated movements and posturing. [4] Essential tremor (ET), also known as benign essential tremor, or familial tremor, is the most common movement ...
