We just use the medical definition. It's when you deliberately do something. So if you deliberately shake you hand that's voluntary. But if you try and keep you had still but it shakes because you have Parkinson's, that involuntary.
With sufficient technology you could scan someone's brain and differentiate between voluntary and involuntary actions.
