Neurological
Neurological Conditions Treated:
- Stroke: A medical emergency resulting from interrupted blood flow to the brain, leading to potential brain damage and loss of function.
- Epilepsy: A chronic disorder characterized by recurrent seizures caused by abnormal electrical activity in the brain.
- Multiple Sclerosis (MS): An autoimmune disease affecting the central nervous system, leading to a range of symptoms, including fatigue, vision problems, and impaired coordination.
- Parkinson's Disease: A progressive neurological disorder that affects movement, causing tremors, stiffness, and difficulty with balance and coordination.
- Alzheimer's Disease: A progressive form of dementia that affects memory, thinking, and behavior, leading to severe cognitive decline.
- Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS): A progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, leading to loss of muscle control.
- Peripheral Neuropathy: Damage to the peripheral nerves, causing weakness, numbness, and pain, often in the hands and feet.
- Cerebral Palsy: A group of disorders affecting movement and muscle tone, caused by damage to the developing brain, often resulting in motor impairments.
- Dementia: An umbrella term for a range of conditions that impair memory, thinking, and social abilities, interfering with daily life.
- Brain Tumors: Abnormal growths of cells within the brain, which can be benign or malignant and may cause various neurological symptoms.
- Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI): An injury to the brain resulting from external force, leading to temporary or permanent changes in brain function.
- Huntington’s Disease: A genetic disorder that causes the progressive breakdown of nerve cells in the brain, affecting movement, cognition, and behavior.
- Neurodegenerative Disorders: A group of conditions characterized by the gradual degeneration of the nervous system, affecting motor and cognitive functions.
- Spinal Cord Injury: Damage to the spinal cord that can result in loss of sensation, movement, and bodily functions below the level of injury.
- Tension-Type Headache: A common form of headache characterized by a dull, aching pain and a sensation of tightness or pressure across the forehead.
- Sleep Disorders: Conditions affecting sleep patterns and quality, including sleep apnea, insomnia, and restless leg syndrome.
- Encephalitis: Inflammation of the brain, often due to infection, which can cause a range of neurological symptoms including fever, confusion, and seizures.
- Meningitis: An infection of the protective membranes covering the brain and spinal cord, leading to symptoms such as headache, fever, and stiff neck.
- Guillain-Barré Syndrome: An autoimmune disorder in which the body's immune system attacks the peripheral nerves, leading to muscle weakness and, in severe cases, paralysis.
