NEUROLOGY CONSULTATIONS AND TREATMENT
CNS Campus offers consultations across a wide range of specialties, from neurology and neurological disorders to complementary areas and proven neurological rehabilitation treatments.
Neurology is the branch of medicine dedicated to the study and treatment of disorders of the nervous system — a complex and sophisticated network that regulates and coordinates the body’s activities. It comprises two main divisions:
-
The central nervous system, which includes the brain and spinal cord
-
The peripheral nervous system, which encompasses all other neural elements, such as the eyes, ears, skin and other sensory receptors
There are many conditions that can affect these systems.
The most common include:
-
Cerebrovascular disorders, such as stroke
-
Demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system, such as multiple sclerosis
-
Headache disorders (cephalalgia)
-
Infections of the brain and peripheral nervous system
-
Movement disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease
-
Neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease)
-
Seizure disorders, such as epilepsy
-
Spinal cord disorders
-
Speech and language disorders
