Botulinum Toxin Therapy
Botulinum Toxin, commonly known as Botox, is an effective treatment for various movement disorders and muscle-related issues. It works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals responsible for excessive muscle contractions, reducing spasticity and enabling greater control of movement. Botox is commonly used for conditions such as dystonia, cerebral palsy, and spasticity caused by stroke or multiple sclerosis.
For patients with dystonia, Botox injections can effectively relax overactive muscles, alleviating involuntary movements and abnormal postures. Similarly, individuals with spasticity experience improved muscle flexibility and movement, which contributes to better mobility and overall comfort. The effects of Botox typically last between three to six months, requiring periodic injections for sustained benefits.
In addition to treating movement disorders, Botox has been shown to significantly reduce the frequency and severity of chronic migraines. By targeting specific muscle groups, particularly around the head and neck, Botox helps prevent migraine episodes, offering relief to patients who have not responded to traditional therapies.
What sets the success of Botulinum Toxin therapy apart is the individualized care it requires. At Chaitanyam Clinic, our specialists carefully assess each patient’s condition to deliver the treatment in the most effective locations. By targeting the precise muscles affected, we help patients achieve the best possible results in symptom relief and improved quality of life.
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is an advanced surgical treatment used to manage neurological conditions that are resistant to medications. In DBS, electrodes are implanted in specific areas of the brain to modulate abnormal electrical impulses, restoring more regular motor control. This technique is most commonly employed for Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, and dystonia, providing considerable improvements in patients’ motor functions and reducing debilitating symptoms like tremors and stiffness.
DBS has proven particularly effective in reducing tremors and motor fluctuations in patients with Parkinson’s disease, allowing them to regain independence and improve their overall functionality.
One of the key factors in successful DBS treatment is the precise adjustment of the neurostimulator’s settings to match each patient’s unique neurological needs. At Chaitanyam Clinic, we provide thorough post-surgical follow-up care to fine-tune these settings, ensuring patients achieve the maximum possible benefit from DBS with minimal side effects.
