With a comprehensive range of treatment options, from advanced medication management and rehabilitation to innovative interventions, we strive to help you regain mobility and improve your quality of life.
Parkinson’s Disease
A progressive neurological disorder that is primarily characterized by tremors, stiffness, slowness of movements, and walking abnormalities.
Atypical Parkinsonian Disorders
Atypical parkinsonism refers to a group of disorders that share some symptoms with Parkinson’s Disease such as stiffness and slowed movements but also present with additional symptoms like balance problems, eye movement abnormalities, autonomic dysfunction, and more cognitive dysfunction. These conditions include Multiple Systems Atrophy, Corticobasal Degeneration, Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, and Lewy Body Dementia.
Tremor
Tremor is a condition marked by involuntary, rhythmic shaking that most often affects the hands and arms during daily activities. Tremor can also present in the legs, head, and voice.
Dystonia
Dystonia is a Movement Disorder where involuntary muscle contractions cause twisting, repetitive movements, or abnormal postures. The most common dystonia is cervical dystonia which can cause abnormal posturing and tremor of the head and neck.
Chorea
Chorea is a Movement Disorder characterized by brief, irregular, involuntary movements, often described as “dancelike” or “fidgety.” These movements can involve the face, arms, legs, and trunk, and may be accompanied by other symptoms depending on the underlying cause
Huntington’s Disease
Huntington’s disease is an inherited condition that leads to the gradual degeneration of nerve cells in the brain that affect movement (usually chorea), cognition, and behavior.
Ataxia
Ataxia is a neurological disorder that impairs coordination and balance, resulting in unsteady walking and movements of the arms and legs, and difficulties with speech and eye coordination.
Myoclonus
Myoclonus is characterized by sudden, brief, involuntary muscle jerks or twitches that can occur in various parts of the body and may vary in frequency and intensity.
Restless Leg Syndrome
Restless Legs Syndrome is a condition marked by an uncontrollable urge to move the legs, often accompanied by uncomfortable sensations that tend to worsen during periods of rest, particularly at night.
Tics and Tourette’s Syndrome
Tics are rapid, repetitive, and involuntary movements or vocalizations that can fluctuate over time in both frequency and severity. They often occur in younger patients.
Wilson’s Disease
Wilson’s disease is a genetic disorder that causes abnormal copper accumulation in the body, particularly in the liver and brain, which can affect movement, cognition, and behavior.
Tardive Dyskinesia
Tardive dyskinesia is a condition characterized by repetitive, involuntary movements, often affecting the face and tongue, typically arising as a delayed side effect of previous antipsychotic medication exposure.
Spasticity
Spasticity is marked by increased muscle tone that leads to stiffness and involuntary muscle contractions, which can interfere with movement and daily activities
