02 Stroke

Also known as a cerebrovascular accident, a Stroke refers to a type of brain damage caused when the blood supply to a part of the brain is interrupted or reduced. This prevents the brain tissues from getting necessary oxygen and nutrients, which causes the cells to die.

03 Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory condition that affects the central nervous system. It causes the immune system to mistakenly attack healthy tissue, specifically the myelin sheath around nerve fibers. This leaves scar tissue or lesions in multiple areas, which disrupts the transmission of nerve signals to the rest of the body. As the myelin sheath disintegrates, nerve impulses slow down or stop — leading to neurological problems.

04 Spinal Cord Injury

Spinal Cord Injury occurs due to mutilation of the spinal cord, leading to extensive, often irreversible functional damage. Patients lose muscle function and sensation in the parts of the body below the site of the injury. Spinal Cord Injury may be incomplete or complete, depending upon the severity of the injury.

05 Parkinson's Disease

Parkinson’s Disease, Parkinson’s Plus Syndrome, or Progressive Supranuclear Palsy are neurodegenerative disorders that gradually break down the nerve cells and primarily affect the substantia nigra. Parkinson’s Disease is characterized by a fall in the secretion of dopamine, the neurochemical that controls the brain’s reward and pleasure centers and is responsible for voluntary movement.

06 Motor Neuron Disease

Motor Neuron Diseases are a group of neurological disorders that affect motor neurons, which control the body’s ability to perform voluntary movements. Patients lose control over voluntary movements in the arms, legs, and face, and also suffer breathing and swallowing difficulties. The most common Motor Neuron Disease is Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease.

07 Cerebral Palsy

Cerebral Palsy refers to a group of neurological disorders that affect movement, muscle tone, coordination, and motor skills. It is caused by damage or abnormalities in the developing brain before, during, or shortly after birth.

09 Muscular Dystrophy

Muscular Dystrophies are a group of diseases that cause progressive weakness and loss of muscle mass in individuals. It is mainly due to genetic mutations that interfere with the production of proteins needed to form healthy muscles.

10 Dystonia

Dystonia is a movement disorder that causes involuntary contraction of muscles, resulting in repetitive movements or abnormal postures. It can affect any part of the body, including the arms, legs, trunk, face, and vocal cords.

11 Refractory Seizures

Refractory seizure is a form of epilepsy that is caused by irregular electrical signals in the brain. Seizures may involve abnormal behavior and movement, episodes of sensory disturbance, or loss of consciousness.
