What is a Neurological Disease?

Causes of Neurological Diseases

Neurological diseases may stem from genetics, trauma, infection, inflammation, vascular damage, or autoimmune responses.

In some cases, the underlying cause is unknown. Brain imaging and symptom monitoring help identify affected areas and guide targeted treatment interventions.

Types of Neurological Diseases

Below is a comprehensive list of neurological conditions we evaluate and treat at Neurotherapeutix.

Alzheimer’s

Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative condition that impairs memory, reasoning, and behavior. It is the most common form of dementia, marked by brain cell death and loss of communication between neural networks.

Concussions (Football Disorder) (PTSD)

Repeated concussions can result in chronic neurological symptoms, including mood swings, memory issues, and cognitive decline. Athletes and individuals with a history of head trauma may be at increased risk of long-term effects.

Frontotemporal Dementias

This group of disorders impacts the frontal and temporal lobes, leading to changes in personality, language, and decision-making. Frontotemporal dementias are often present earlier than other dementias and progress more rapidly.

Migraine Headaches

Migraine is a neurological disorder marked by intense headaches, often with nausea, visual disturbances, and light sensitivity. It may involve disrupted brain wave activity and hypersensitive pain pathways.

Parkinson’s Disease

Parkinson’s is a progressive movement disorder caused by the loss of dopamine-producing neurons. It commonly presents with tremors, stiffness, slowness of movement, and cognitive or emotional changes over time.

Sequelae from Neurosurgery

Neurological symptoms that persist after brain or spinal surgery include cognitive deficits, sensory changes, or coordination issues. These sequelae may benefit from targeted neurorehabilitation.

Stroke

A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted, resulting in cell death and loss of function. Symptoms depend on the brain region affected and may include weakness, speech problems, or memory deficits.

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)

TBI is a common neurological disease caused by sudden head trauma that disrupts normal brain function. Neurological disease symptoms following TBI can range from mild confusion and headaches to severe cognitive impairments, motor dysfunction, and behavioral changes, depending on injury severity.

Tinnitus

Tinnitus involves persistent ringing or buzzing in the ears, often related to abnormal brain activity in auditory processing regions. This neurological disease symptom can significantly impair cognitive function, sleep patterns, and concentration, substantially reducing quality of life without proper treatment.

Chronic Pain (ADHD)

Chronic pain is often linked to altered brain and nerve signaling. When pain becomes centralized, it may persist beyond the original injury and resist standard treatment approaches.

Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is a neurological disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, and cognitive issues. It is believed to involve abnormal pain processing within the central nervous system.

Essential Tremor

Essential tremor is a movement disorder that causes involuntary shaking, especially in the hands. It is separate from Parkinson’s disease but may worsen with time and stress.

Acute Spinal Cord Injury

Sudden trauma to the spinal cord can impair communication between the brain and body. These injuries may cause paralysis, sensory loss, or autonomic dysfunction, depending on the location and extent.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)

ALS is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder affecting motor neurons, leading to muscle weakness, impaired speech, and, eventually, loss of voluntary movement and respiratory function.

Ataxia

Ataxia is impaired coordination and balance due to dysfunction in the cerebellum or other brain regions. It may be hereditary or acquired and can affect gait, speech, and motor control.

Bell’s Palsy

Bell’s palsy is a sudden, temporary weakness or paralysis of the facial muscles. It is often linked to nerve inflammation and may affect speech, blinking, and facial expressions.

Brain Tumors (BPD)

Brain tumors can disrupt normal brain function depending on their size and location. They may cause headaches, seizures, motor deficits, or cognitive changes, whether benign or malignant.

Cerebral Aneurysm

A cerebral aneurysm is a weakened blood vessel in the brain that can bulge or rupture, potentially leading to stroke or hemorrhage. Prompt neurological disease treatment is essential for cerebral aneurysms to prevent rupture, hemorrhage, and permanent neurological damage.

Cluster Headaches

Cluster headaches are intense, recurrent headaches that occur in cyclical patterns. They are known for their severity and may be associated with autonomic symptoms like tearing or nasal congestion.

Encephalitis

Encephalitis is inflammation of the brain, usually caused by a viral infection. Depending on the affected areas, it can result in fever, confusion, seizures, and long-term neurological complications.

Epilepsy and Seizures(BPD)

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder marked by recurrent seizures due to abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Seizures can vary in type and severity, affecting consciousness and motor control

Guillain-Barré Syndrome

Guillain-Barré is a rare autoimmune disorder where the immune system attacks the nerves, often following infection. It can cause rapid-onset muscle weakness and may require intensive rehabilitation.

Head Injury

Head injuries may lead to temporary or permanent changes in brain function. Even mild injuries can affect mood, memory, and concentration, especially with repeated trauma.

Hydrocephalus

As one of the many types of neurological diseases we treat, hydrocephalus involves cerebrospinal fluid accumulation in the brain’s ventricles, creating dangerous intracranial pressure. This neurological condition can cause severe headaches, vision problems, balance disorders, and cognitive impairment if left untreated.

Lumbar Disk Disease (Herniated Disk)

A herniated lumbar disk can compress spinal nerves, leading to pain, numbness, or weakness in the legs. Severe cases may impact mobility and nerve function.

Meningitis

Meningitis is inflammation of the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord, typically caused by infection. Without prompt treatment, it can progress rapidly and lead to serious complications.

Multiple Sclerosis

MS is an autoimmune disease that damages the protective covering of nerves, disrupting communication between the brain and body. Symptoms can include fatigue, vision problems, and muscle weakness.

Muscular Dystrophy

This group of genetic disorders leads to progressive muscle degeneration and weakness. Some types also affect respiratory and cardiac muscles, requiring long-term supportive care.

Myasthenia Gravis

Myasthenia gravis is a chronic autoimmune condition that affects nerve-muscle communication, leading to weakness in voluntary muscles, particularly in the face, neck, and limbs.

Neurocutaneous Syndromes

Neurocutaneous disorders affect both the skin and the nervous system. Conditions like neurofibromatosis can cause tumors to form on nerves, sometimes impacting brain or spinal cord function.

Septicemia

Septicemia, or sepsis, is a life-threatening response to infection that can affect the brain and nervous system. Survivors may experience cognitive impairments or peripheral neuropathy.

Tension Headaches

While classified among milder neurological diseases and disorders, chronic tension headaches can significantly diminish cognitive function, work performance, and overall quality of life when inadequately managed.

Functional Imaging-Guided TMS for Neurological Conditions

At Neurotherapeutix, we offer a range of medical services to manage and treat your neurological condition effectively.

Our experienced team uses fMRI-guided transcranial magnetic stimulation to identify and treat the brain regions most impacted by neurological disease. TMS in neurology represents a breakthrough approach for neurological disease treatment, stimulating neural plasticity mechanisms that help the brain establish new connections and restore functions impaired by various neurological diseases and disorders.
