Spasticity<\/h2><\/div>

We offer treatment for spasticity in children and adults using ultrasound-guided cryoneurolysis.<\/em><\/h2><\/div>

Spasticity is often seen in people with neurological disorders, including stroke (blood clot in the brain or brain hemorrhage), traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, Multiple Sclerosis, and Cerebral Palsy.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Spasticity can interfere with movement and posture, causing discomfort and pain, either at rest or during movement, which significantly reduces quality of life. If left untreated, spasticity can lead to contractures. A contracture is a reduced range of motion around a joint due to changes in the joint or the surrounding soft tissues, preventing normal movement of the joint, which can be highly inconvenient for the individual.<\/p>\n

Cryoneurolysis is an innovative procedure for treating spasticity in children and adults.<\/p>\n

The procedure works by freezing the nerves that cause muscles to contract.<\/p>\n
