Alzheimer’s disease is the most common

type of irreversible dementia (gradual loss

of memory, intellect, rational thought and
social skills. The disease affects these
cells and chemicals, disturbing memory,
impairing thinking and causing behavior
changes over time.
Bell’s palsy is a sudden weakness or
paralysis in one side of the face. It is
caused by inflammation or damage to the
facial nerve.
Cerebral palsy is a condition that affects
body movements due to brain injury. The
injury can happen before, during or after
birth and does not get worse over time.
The brain damage affects body movement
and posture. It often shows up as either
floppy or stiff muscles, or involuntary
muscle movements.
Epilepsy is a long-term brain condition
where a person has
repeated seizures. Epilepsy is not one
single condition; rather it is a range of
different conditions that can cause
seizures.

Motor neuron disease (MND) is the

name for a group of diseases that affects
particular nerves known as motor nerves,
or motor neurons. In MND, those neurons
generate and die and slowly the muscles
become weaker. 

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic

disease that affects the central nervous
system. MS means there is damage to the
protective sheath (known as myelin) that
surrounds the nerve fibers in the brain and
spinal cord.
Neurofibromatosis is a genetic
condition characterized by the growth of
neurofibromas. These are a type of tumor
that is usually benign, or non-cancerous,
although in rare cases they can
be cancerous. These neurofibromas can
form wherever there are nerve cells in the
body.

Parkinson's disease is a disorder of the

nervous system. It results from damage to
the nerve cells that produce dopamine, a
chemical that is vital for the smooth control
of muscles and movement.
Sciatica is a condition that can lead to
pain in the back and legs. It occurs when
pain travels along the path of the sciatic
nerve. This nerve starts in the lower spine,
and travels through the hip and buttock
and down the back of the leg to the foot.
