Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)

Uses
Primarily used in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease to reduce the need for drugs and increase movement.

This is a process used to stimulate the Brain where electrodes are implanted in the brain to produce small amounts of electrical pulses from stimulators which are implanted in the chest wall like pacemakers. This will involve surgery and we work with our selected neurological colleagues.

No preparation is required.
