Deep Brain Stimulation treatment is provided by the neurosurgeons and neurologists at Apollo Hospital for patients suffering from Parkinson's disease, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Essential Tremor, and other conditions. Tremors, rigidity, stiffness, slowed movement, and walking difficulties can all be treated with deep brain stimulation (DBS) at Apollo.
The procedure is also used to treat essential tremors, a common neurological movement disorder. DBS does not harm healthy brain tissue by destroying nerve cells. The procedure, instead, disables electrical signals from specific areas of the brain. DBS operates by delivering electrical signals to the brain. DBS can significantly improve slowness and stiffness in people with Parkinson's disease, as well as eliminate tremors in people with ET. DBS can help relax muscles and improve abnormal postures caused by muscle contractions in those suffering from dystonia. DBS can help to improve one's quality of life in all cases. Some of the neurosurgeons at Apollo Hospital include Dr. Arulselvan V L, Dr. Dhanaraj M, and Dr. Yogaraj S.
