DBS for Dystonia in India

---

Dystonia is a movement disorder that causes involuntary muscle contractions, twisting, and abnormal postures. For patients whose symptoms are disabling and resistant to medications, Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery offers a proven treatment option. At INSS, Dr Vibha Gaonkar, an experienced DBS surgeon in India, provides advanced neuromodulation therapies to help patients with dystonia regain mobility, independence, and quality of life. 

DBS involves implanting electrodes in targeted areas of the brain that control abnormal muscle activity. These electrodes deliver mild electrical impulses that help restore balanced movement signals. Over time, DBS can significantly reduce involuntary contractions and improve posture.
