Parkinsons Disease

Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a condition that affects the brain, specifically the central nervous system. It occurs when nerve cells in the brain that produce dopamine, a chemical that helps control movement, begin to malfunction. As dopamine levels decrease, the disease disrupts movement, leading to symptoms like tremors, stiffness, and difficulty with coordination, walking, and balance. These symptoms usually start slowly and worsen over time.

Migraine Treatment

A migraine is an intense headache that causes a throbbing or pulsing pain, typically on one side of the head. This neurological condition is often accompanied by symptoms like nausea, vomiting, and heightened sensitivity to light and sound. The severity of migraine attacks can disrupt daily activities, sometimes confining individuals to bed for days.

Headache Treatment

Headaches are a common neurological condition marked by pain or discomfort in the head or upper neck. Their intensity, duration, and causes can vary, leading to different types of headaches. These headaches can significantly affect daily life, causing pain, disruption, and discomfort.

Epilepsy Treatment

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder that affects specific regions of the brain, leading to recurrent seizures. These seizures result from sudden electrical disturbances within the brain and can be categorized as either generalized, affecting the entire brain, or localized, impacting only a specific area. This condition can affect individuals of any age or gender, with the temporal lobes of the brain commonly associated with seizure activity.

Brain Tumor Treatment

A brain tumor is an abnormal mass or growth of cells within or around the brain. This growth can disrupt normal brain functions and, in some cases, can be life-threatening. Although the likelihood of developing a brain tumor is less than 1% in a lifetime, brain tumors are the most prevalent form of central nervous system tumors, making up 85–90% of cases.

Understanding Neuroplasticity

It is defined as the ability of the nervous system to change its activity in response to intrinsic or extrinsic stimuli by reorganizing its structure, functions, or connections after injuries, such as a stroke or traumatic brain injury (TBI).
