Parkinson’s Disease

Positive Mind Care and Research Centre is a leading mental health care  facility of Delhi – NCR, dedicated to helping individuals to overcome Major Depressive Disorder and reclaim their joyful lives through a unique breakthrough technology called Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (Deep TMS), which can reach significant depth and breadth of the brain and produce broad stimulation and functional modulation of targeted brain areas to help treat MDD.

Deep TMS treatment features unique, patented coils that are fitted into a helmet, which is secured snugly to the patient’s head during the treatment. We are using BrainsWay’s therapy, which has been utilized in over 60 clinical trials worldwide. The company’s device has been FDA approved for the treatment of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) since 2013, FDA cleared (De-Novo) for the treatment of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) since 2018, FDA cleared as an aid for short-term Smoking Cessation since 2020, and has now received an expanded indication for Anxious Depression.

What is Parkinson’s Disease?

Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder that primarily affects movement. It is characterized by the gradual degeneration and loss of dopamine-producing neurons in the brain. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter responsible for transmitting signals that regulate movement and coordination.

The exact cause of Parkinson’s disease is not fully understood, but it is believed to involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors. It predominantly affects people over the age of 60, but early-onset cases can occur in younger individuals.

While there is currently no cure for Parkinson’s disease, treatment aims to manage symptoms and improve quality of life. Medications, physical therapy, and lifestyle adjustments can help control motor symptoms and provide relief from non-motor symptoms. In some cases, deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery may be considered to help manage certain symptoms.

Parkinson’s disease is a chronic condition, and its progression varies from person to person. With appropriate medical care and support, many individuals with Parkinson’s disease can maintain a reasonable quality of life and continue to engage in daily activities for an extended period. Regular follow-up with a neurologist or movement disorder specialist is crucial to monitor and manage the condition effectively.

PARKINSON’S DISEASE DEMOGRAPHICS

Around 10 million people suffer from Parkinson’s Disease globally.

SYMPTOMS

The symptoms of Parkinson’s disease can vary from person to person and often develop gradually over time. The primary symptoms are related to movement and are caused by the progressive degeneration of dopamine-producing neurons in the brain.

The main symptoms of Parkinson’s disease include

Tremors: Involuntary shaking, usually starting in one hand or finger. Tremors are often more noticeable at rest and can lessen during movement.

Bradykinesia: Slowness of movement, making simple tasks more time-consuming. This can result in reduced arm swing while walking, difficulty initiating movement, and a general slowness in daily activities.

Rigidity: Stiffness and resistance in muscles, leading to reduced flexibility and movement. Muscles may feel tense and rigid, particularly in the arms, legs, neck, or trunk.

Postural instability: Difficulty maintaining balance and an increased risk of falls. Individuals with Parkinson’s disease may have a stooped posture and may experience difficulties in maintaining balance when standing or walking.

Other symptoms of Parkinson’s disease can include
  • Reduced sense of smell (anosmia).
  • Sleep disturbances, including insomnia and restless legs.
  • Cognitive changes, such as difficulties with memory, attention, and problem-solving.
  • Mood changes, including depression and anxiety.
  • Constipation and other gastrointestinal problems.

It’s important to note that not everyone with Parkinson’s disease will experience all of these symptoms, and the severity of the symptoms can vary widely among individuals. Early diagnosis and appropriate medical care, often involving a neurologist or movement disorder specialist, can help manage symptoms and improve the quality of life for people with Parkinson’s disease. Treatment may include medications, physical therapy, lifestyle adjustments, and in some cases, deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery to manage certain symptoms.

How does Deep TMS Work ?

Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (Deep TMS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that has been studied as a potential treatment for various neuropsychiatric conditions, including smoking addiction. While the research in this area is still ongoing, Deep TMS has shown some promising results in helping individuals with smoking addiction. Here’s how Deep TMS may help in treating smoking addiction:

  • Targeting Reward and Craving Pathways: Deep TMS can be applied to specific brain regions associated with reward processing and cravings, such as the prefrontal cortex and the insula. These brain areas play a role in the reinforcement and motivation aspects of addiction, including smoking.
  • Reducing Cravings and Withdrawal Symptoms: By stimulating targeted brain regions, Deep TMS may help reduce cravings for nicotine and alleviate withdrawal symptoms that individuals experience when trying to quit smoking.
  • Modulating Neurotransmitters: Deep TMS can influence the release and activity of neurotransmitters in the brain, such as dopamine and serotonin, which are involved in the reward system. By modulating these neurotransmitters, Deep TMS may impact the pleasure and reinforcement associated with smoking.
  • Enhancing Self-Control and Decision-Making: Some research suggests that Deep TMS may improve cognitive functions related to self-control and decision-making. Strengthening these abilities can be beneficial in resisting the urge to smoke and making healthier choices.
  • Long-Term Effects on Craving Reduction: Studies have shown that Deep TMS sessions can lead to long-lasting effects on reducing cravings, making it a potential treatment option for maintaining abstinence from smoking in the long term.
  • Personalized Treatment: Deep TMS allows for individualized treatment by targeting specific brain regions relevant to each person’s smoking addiction. This personalized approach may lead to more effective outcomes.
