Parkinson’s & Movement Disorders

Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders are complex neurological conditions that affect voluntary muscle control, posture, and coordination. These disorders can impact a person’s ability to walk, speak, write, or perform routine tasks — often progressing over time and requiring specialized, long-term management.

At Numed Super Speciality Hospital, we offer a dedicated, expert-driven approach to the evaluation and treatment of movement disorders. Our team of experienced neurologists, therapists, and support specialists works collaboratively to provide precise diagnosis, personalized treatment plans, and ongoing care focused on improving both motor function and overall quality of life.

Conditions We Manage

Our department specializes in a broad range of movement-related neurological disorders, including:

• Parkinson’s Disease

• Atypical Parkinsonian Syndromes (MSA, PSP, CBD)

• Essential Tremor

• Dystonia (including cervical dystonia, blepharospasm)

• Ataxia & Balance Disorders

• Myoclonus

• Tic Disorders & Tourette Syndrome

• Chorea & Huntington’s Disease

• Restless Leg Syndrome

• Drug-Induced Movement Disorders

• Functional (Psychogenic) Movement Disorders

Common Symptoms That Require Attention

Patients experiencing the following symptoms should seek neurological evaluation:

• Persistent tremors or shaking

• Muscle stiffness or rigidity

• Slowness of movement (bradykinesia)

• Imbalance or frequent falls

• Changes in walking pattern (shuffling gait)

• Small handwriting (micrographia)

• Facial masking (reduced expression)

• Speech changes (low volume, monotone)

• Difficulty with fine motor skills

• Sudden, involuntary jerks or contractions

Our Comprehensive Approach

At Numed, we follow a structured, multidisciplinary protocol for diagnosis and management:

1. Clinical Evaluation & Diagnosis

• Detailed neurological examination

• Assessment of gait, posture, coordination, and reflexes

• Brain imaging (MRI/CT)

• Tremor analysis and movement testing

• Laboratory and genetic tests when needed

2. Personalized Medical Management

Treatment is tailored to each patient’s condition, stage, and symptoms:

• Levodopa and dopamine-based therapies

• MAO-B and COMT inhibitors

• Anticholinergic medications

• Amantadine

• Botulinum toxin injections (for dystonia, facial spasms, limb tremors)

3. Advanced Interventions

Patients with advanced Parkinson’s or disabling tremors may benefit from:

• Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) evaluation and referral

• Surgical clearance and follow-up coordination

• Device programming and post-operative care

4. Rehabilitation & Supportive Therapies

Our integrated team supports patient recovery and independence with:

• Physiotherapy for balance, gait, and mobility

• Speech therapy for voice modulation and swallowing

• Occupational therapy for activities of daily living

• Psychological counseling for mood and cognitive changes

• Nutritional support to maintain energy and optimize treatment response

5. Long-Term Follow-Up & Caregiver Guidance

We provide continuous monitoring to adjust treatment, track progression, and educate families on home care, safety, and support resources.
