What is Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)?

Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is a surgical procedure that involves implanting a small device, similar to a pacemaker, to deliver electrical impulses to specific areas of the brain. These impulses help regulate abnormal brain activity, providing relief from symptoms of neurological disorders.

Conditions Treated with DBS

• • Parkinson’s Disease: Reduces tremors, stiffness, and movement difficulties.
  • Essential Tremor: Controls involuntary shaking, particularly in the hands.
  • Dystonia: Alleviates muscle spasms and abnormal postures.
  • Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD): Helps manage severe, treatment-resistant OCD.
  • Epilepsy: Reduces the frequency and severity of seizures in some cases.

Our partner specialists use advanced techniques, including image-guided surgery and real-time brain mapping, to ensure precise placement of the DBS device.
