Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a type of novel therapy used to relieve neurological symptoms associated with Parkinson’s disease such as:

• Stiffness and rigidity
• Slowed movement
• Walking problems
• Muscle spasms
Outcomes of DBS therapy are encouraging and very effective in helping improve quality of life.
A brief about Parkinson Disease:
Parkinson’s disease (PD) occurs when brain cells that make dopamine, a chemical that coordinates movement, stop working or die.
The experience of living with Parkinson’s over the course of a lifetime is unique to each person, as a result its difficult even for doctors to say what symptoms a patient may experience.
