Multiple Sclerosis Treatment at "Helyos" Surgery and Rehabilitation Center

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, which is the leading cause of chronic neurological disability in young and middle-aged people. MS can result in deterioration of muscle strength, sensitivity, coordination, as well as visual and cognitive functions, leading to significant physical and emotional discomfort.
