Hello! We've had this bird for a few years now, and shes pretty much always had this condition where her head will twist either left or right. sometimes it'll just be once or twice, sometimes more. I attached a video of whats going on, sometimes its more frequent and intense, sometimes not. Any advice or help is appreciated, just want to make sure shes ok or can get be treated if need be.

 
That is neurological in origin, maybe a tick of some sort or seizure. It maybe from something that has affected her brain. I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Sometimes vitamin E 400 IU and a small amount of egg yolk daily can be used to treat neurological symptoms, especially wry neck, if you would want to try that for a couple of weeks.

Geez that sounds horrible, but I'll start treating like you've mentioned. thanks
