Understanding Your Family’s Neurological Health Journey
When movement challenges affect your loved ones, finding clear answers becomes your priority. Our KANK1 gene test offers South African families the certainty they deserve in understanding cerebral palsy type 2 spastic quadriplegic conditions. With advanced genetic technology and compassionate care, we help you navigate complex neurological concerns with confidence and clarity.
What This Test Reveals About Your Genetic Health
The KANK1 gene plays a crucial role in brain development and motor function. When mutations occur in this gene, they can lead to cerebral palsy type 2 spastic quadriplegic – a condition affecting muscle control and movement. Our Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your DNA with precision, identifying specific genetic variations that could impact your family’s neurological health.
This isn’t just a test – it’s a roadmap to understanding inherited conditions that may affect movement, coordination, and daily living activities. By identifying these genetic factors early, South African families can make informed decisions about healthcare, therapy options, and future planning.
Who Should Consider This Important Genetic Test?
This test provides valuable insights for:
- Families with a history of cerebral palsy or movement disorders
- Parents concerned about inherited neurological conditions
- Individuals experiencing unexplained muscle stiffness or movement difficulties
- Couples planning pregnancy who want to understand genetic risks
- Healthcare providers seeking definitive diagnoses for complex neurological symptoms
- South African families across Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban and Pretoria seeking clarity
If you’ve noticed persistent movement challenges, muscle tightness, or coordination difficulties in your family, this test could provide the answers you need for better health management.
Why Early Genetic Understanding Matters for Your Family
Discovering genetic factors behind neurological conditions brings multiple life-changing benefits:
- Early Intervention Planning: Identify risks before symptoms become severe
- Targeted Therapy: Develop personalised treatment approaches based on genetic findings
