Parkinson's and Movement Disorders

Parkinson's and movement disorder care at Mar Sleeva Medicity Palai in Kottayam, Kerala focuses on the diagnosis and long term management of Parkinson's disease, tremor, dystonia, and other movement disorders. Our neurologists tailor treatment to each patient's symptoms and stage of disease, with the aim of improving movement, controlling symptoms, and maintaining independence in daily life.

Treatment may include medication management and botulinum toxin injections for selected movement disorders. Botulinum toxin can help manage conditions such as dystonia and muscle spasms when these symptoms significantly affect movement or daily activities. As movement disorders can change over time, treatment is regularly reviewed and adjusted to meet the patient's changing needs.
