Movement Disorders

Movement disorders can be caused by diminished or slowed voluntary movements (hypokinetic) or increased involuntary movements (hyperkinetic).Parkinson’s disease is the most common of these hypokinetic degenerative disorders, but we also treat progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), multiple system atrophy (MSA) and corticobasal ganglionic degeneration. Our expertise in hyperkinetic disorders includes Huntington’s disease, Tourette’s syndrome, essential tremor, and dystonia.

We diagnose and treat all movement disorders, whether they are caused by primary nervous system dysfunction or by strokes or medications. Our team has expertise in tremor disorders, primary and secondary ataxias, gait disorders, restless legs syndrome, and stiff-person syndrome.
