Neurology

Your muscles move when nerve signals from the brain tell them to get to work. Electromyography measures how well your muscles respond to those signals. If the test picks up a problem, you may be diagnosed with what is called a neuromuscular disorder.

General neurology is the treatment for neurological disorders, including dementia and cognitive disorders, migraines, MS, seizure disorders, movement disorders and Parkinson’s disease, amongst others.  

Nerve signals are electrical impulses that travel quickly throughout your nervous system. Sometimes, problems with the electrical activity in your nerves can cause pain, tingling, or weakness in your muscles. NCS measures how fast and how strong the electrical activity is in a nerve. The test can tell whether a nerve has been damaged.

• Botox injections for muscle spasticity after strokes.
• Botox injections for Sialorrhea (excessive drooling or salivation).
• Botox injections for Dystonia (a movement disorder in which a person's muscles contract uncontrollably)

Sphenopalatine Ganglion Block (SPG Block) can provide relief from migraines and other types of headache and facial pain. SPG Block is a procedure where concentrated lidocaine, a pain reliever, is delivered through the nose and applied directly to the group of nerves that causes these headaches. Relief is often immediate and last for weeks or months without the need for other injections or medicines. 

SPG Block is effective for the treatment of migraines. It can also help other symptoms associated with severe headaches, like nausea.

The procedure takes about 20 minutes, is virtually pain free and has no required preparation. SPG is about 90 percent effective and can be repeated as needed to reduce pain.
