Multiple sclerosis is a disease that affects people of all ages - both young and old. This condition involves damage to several areas of the nervous system. As a result, lesions or plaques form on the nerve sheath…
ReadTreatment of Acute and Chronic Inflammatory Diseases of the Nervous System in Israel
Inflammatory diseases of the human nervous system are very common today. These complications can last quite a long time and require prolonged and careful treatment. Neurological pathologies must be taken very seriously, as they affect the normal functioning of other organs and systems.
ReadTreatment of Hereditary Diseases of the Central and Peripheral Nervous System in Israel
Heredity can influence not only a person's character or appearance but also how the body develops and what disorders and pathologies it acquires. Hereditary diseases can vary widely. For example, these include degenerative diseases, epilepsy, neuromuscular diseases, conditions characterized by impaired development and migration of neurons, as well as tumors of the central nervous system.
ReadTreatment of Cerebral Circulation Disorders in Israel
The human brain is an important organ responsible for the normal functioning of the entire body. Thanks to circulation in the vascular system of the spinal and brain, each organ can function normally. Disorders of this blood flow can lead to physical deviations and consciousness disturbances.
ReadMigraine Treatment in Israel
Migraine is a high-intensity pain that affects one half of the head (mainly the ocular, frontal, and temporal regions), during which the patient has an exaggerated sensitivity to light and sound stimuli. Causes The causes of migraine...
ReadTreatment of Infectious and Neurodegenerative Diseases in Israel
Infectious and neurodegenerative diseases encompass various ailments. The most common issue faced by specialists in the field of neurology and those specifically dealing with neurodegenerative diseases is Alzheimer's disease. This problem is a consequence of disruptions in the brain. Each year, more and more people suffer from this disorder, resulting in fatal outcomes.
ReadStroke Treatment in Israel
A stroke is a condition associated with the disruption of blood supply to the oxygen of brain cells. Ischemic stroke (blood circulation is disrupted due to a vessel being blocked by a thrombus) and hemorrhagic stroke (rupture of a blood vessel, bleeding in the brain) are distinguished.
ReadTreatment of Demyelinating Diseases in Israel
Demyelinating diseases are characterized by damage to myelin – the membrane that covers axons in the central and peripheral nervous systems. This membrane is very important for the human body, as it nourishes nerve endings and is responsible for the speed of impulse transmission from one axon to another.
ReadTreatment of Dizziness in Israel - Vestibular Dizziness (VERTIGO)
Dizziness or vertigo is a disorder of the vestibular system, accompanied by disturbances in balance, vision, and hearing. A person feels an illusory movement of surrounding objects and feels unstable in space. Pro…
ReadTreatment of Trigeminal Nerve Inflammation in Israel
The most important of all pairs of maxillofacial nerves is the trigeminal nerve. It is named so because it has three nerve branches – ophthalmic, maxillary, and mandibular. Inflammation of the trigeminal nerve is a fairly common condition affecting one side of the face (most often the right).
