The nervous system is one of the most complex and important systems in the human body. It is responsible for coordinating all vital functions: movement, speech, memory, senses, balance, and even mood, meaning any disorder can have a significant impact on daily life and well-being. At the Baltijos Amerikos klinika, comprehensive diagnostics of neurological disorders are performed, and the most advanced treatment methods are applied.
When is a consultation with a neurologist required?
Our clinic’s experienced specialists provide consultations and treatment for patients experiencing headaches and spinal pain, insomnia, migraines, dizziness, balance and post-traumatic disorders. It is also recommended to consult a neurologist if you experience pain or reduced muscle strength in any part of the body, taste or smell disorders, memory impairment, anxiety, or seizures with muscle twitching.
Neurology services provided at the clinic
Consultation with a neurologist
This is the first step towards identifying the causes of nervous system disorders and selecting the appropriate treatment. During a neurology consultation, the patient’s condition and medical history are evaluated, a physical neurological examination is performed, and a diagnosis is made or the necessary tests are prescribed. The doctor helps the patient understand the origin of their symptoms and creates a personalised treatment plan.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
An advanced imaging method that allows for a comprehensive assessment of the brain, spine, and nervous system. An MRI scan is particularly useful for diagnosing multiple sclerosis, tumours, circulatory disorders, disc damage, or nerve compression. Since the scan is painless, safe, and does not emit ionising radiation, it is highly suitable for both initial investigation and monitoring the progression of a disease.
Cryotherapy
A procedure in which the affected area of the body is exposed to cold temperatures. It is most commonly performed to relieve chronic pain, inflammation, or muscle spasms. The cold suppresses the transmission of nerve impulses, reduces tissue swelling, and stimulates blood circulation. The procedure is used for neurological pain, peripheral nerve damage, or post-traumatic disorders.
Reflexology
During this procedure, pressure is applied to points on the body linked to internal organs or the nervous system. Reflexology helps reduce stress, normalise nervous system activity, and improve blood circulation and overall well-being. The procedure is often used as a complementary therapy for neurological or functional disorders.
Immobilising manual therapy
A therapy designed to restore mobility to the spine or joints and reduce pain. During the session, a specialist uses their hands to perform precisely controlled movements – such as stretching and gentle mobilisation – which help reduce muscle tension, improve posture, and relieve neurological pain.
Epidural steroid injection
A procedure where anti-inflammatory medication (steroids) is injected into the epidural space around the spinal nerves. It is used for nerve root irritation, such as from a herniated disc or spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal). The injection reduces pain, swelling, and inflammation, and can help avoid surgery.
Discectomy
A surgical procedure to remove part of a spinal disc that is pressing on nerve roots. A discectomy is performed when conservative treatment does not relieve severe back or leg pain. It is one of the most common spinal surgeries, helping the patient return to their normal daily rhythm.
Laser disc therapy
A minimally invasive, highly effective pain relief treatment method where the damaged spinal disc tissue is treated with infrared rays and a constant magnetic field. The procedure is performed through a tiny puncture under local anaesthetic.
Nervous system health – the key to overall well-being
The nervous system works quietly and continuously to allow us to move, think, feel, and live life to the full. Its disorders often affect not only the body but also emotional well-being and daily activities. Timely diagnostic testing and appropriate treatment can help prevent long-term complications and significantly improve quality of life. If you experience unclear symptoms, chronic fatigue, or recurring pain, it is advisable to consult a neurologist. The health of your nervous system is the foundation of your daily life.
