What is Parkinson's Disease? Parkinson's disease is a neurological disorder which causes involuntary tremors, muscle rigidity, difficulty with walking and balance, among other symptoms. What is Essential Tremor? Essential tremor (also known as benign familial tremor or action tremor) is a relatively common neurological condition that most often causes hand tremors. Many patients with essential tremor also experience head tremors. The tremors are usually felt when patients are re...
Multiple Sclerosis and Demyelinating Diseases - at Advanced Neurosciences Institute
Multiple Sclerosis and Demyelinating Diseases Diseases of the nervous system are called different names depending on which tissues of the nervous system are affected and what nature of injury occurs. When inflammation occurs for no clear reason within the brain, optic nerves, or spinal cord, the term "demyelinating disease" is used. Demyelinating refers to the affecting of the white matter of the brain. This tissue contains the connections between parts of the brain and spinal cord....

Symptoms of MS and Demyelinating Diseases - at Advanced Neurosciences Institute
Symptoms of any disease in the nervous system usually depend on which portion of the nervous system is involved. For example, a problem near the part of the brain involved with sensing movement will be felt as abnormal movement sensation or vertigo. A problem in the pathway carrying vision impulses will produce blurred vision. Trouble in the large bundle of nervous tissue in the neck (the spinal cord) will produce difficulties with sensation difficulties or trouble with the arms, legs, bladder, ...

NeuroSpa

At Neurospa Brain Rejuvenation Center, we use digital and precise OBJECTIVE measures to diagnose and identify areas of brain dysfunction.  While many offices use potentially harmful and/or toxic chemicals, or radioactive ions, our methods use proven diagnostic tools including quantitative EEG and MRI imaging, to evaluate the central nervous system.

Our team consists of board certified neurologists, neuroradiologists, psychiatrists, and psychologists.
