Better outcomes for more patients
Understanding the journey of those with chronic neurological conditions inspires every step we take. Our specialization in neurology further brings us closer to the experiences of people building lives, families, careers, and connections while managing a complex medical condition.
Our team is united by compassion and personally committed to improving lives and helping people with neurological conditions strive for their full potential.
Hemiparesis

Blepharospasms
Lynne
Lynne, living with blepharospasms, and her partner share their journey through years of uncertainty and the challenges they faced on the road to diagnosis. They reflect on how treatment brought a remarkable change in a short time, restoring a sense of normalcy they once thought lost.
“For 5 years, my children, my husband and my mother had to follow me everywhere. The treatment has given me a new life.”
My family doctor recommended that I try Pantogar, which contains specific active ingredients that the hair needs. So my dream of long, healthy hair came true after all.
Melanie
I am 40 years old, I had a stroke 10 years ago. Since then, the whole right side of my body is spastic. My goal is to make further progress and maintain my independence as long as possible.
Emmanuel
Having cerebral palsy, I struggle with any activity that you would use two hands for normally. I wasn’t able to tie my shoe laces until I was about 15. But I found a way, so I now I can do it with one hand, which is really good.
Calum
If you have Parkinson’s people stare anyway but if the saliva runs … you can’t really be among people anymore, you're marginalized. But two days after the injection all the symptoms are gone and if it starts again, I'll go back.
Helmut
I have blepharospasms. For five years, my husband, my children and my mother had to accompany me everywhere. Two days after the first injections, I could move around again independently and even drive a car.
Lynne
In an accident, my thigh was burnt by a motorbike exhaust. I would like to thank Contractubex for making my scar look so much better after five months of treatment.
