LYNCHBURG, Va. (WFXR) — Centra has announced a new ‘Deep Brain Stimulation Therapy' is being offered in Lynchburg that can bring relief to individuals experiencing tremors or even suffering from Parkinson's disease. 'The lead delivers electrical stimulation to targeted areas of the brain which results in the stabilization of the brain signals that cause the tremors. The settings of the stimulator are finetuned three to five weeks after the surgery is completed which allows the amount of stimulation being produced to be refined while also helping to reduce side effects.
