Welcome to Royal Care Institute of Neurosciences

Have you ever visited the ‘City of Spices,’ a city known for its rich history and vibrant culture? Well, it’s none other than Calicut, or Kozhikode, a city that has played a significant role in India’s maritime history. With great pride, I write about Calicut, a city that is not only a major trading hub but also a cultural and educational center. Calicut is home to several iconic landmarks, including the beautiful Kozhikode Beach, the serene Mananchira Square, and the historic Thali Temple. The city is also famous for its delicious Malabar cuisine, including the iconic Kozhikode biryani and banana chips. I highly recommend that all readers visit Calicut at least once in their lifetime; it’s a city that offers a unique blend of history, culture, and culinary delights.

As we age, maintaining our health and independence becomes increasingly important. However, for some, performing simple tasks like holding a cup, writing, or even walking can become a challenge due to involuntary shaking or tremors. These tremors, often seen in older adults, are caused by the involuntary contraction and relaxation of muscles, leading to rhythmic shaking. This condition, known as essential tremor, can affect the hands, head, voice, or even the torso. Essential tremor is a neurological disorder that typically worsens with movement and can be hereditary in nature.

One of the leading causes of tremors is the lack of coordination between the cerebellum and other parts of the brain. Essential tremor, also known as familial tremor, is often inherited and can significantly impact a person’s quality of life. The condition usually starts mildly but can progress over time, often affecting one side of the body more than the other. Fortunately, the best treatment for essential tremors is now available at Royal Care Neurosciences Hospital, a pioneer in neurological care in the Indian subcontinent, Middle East, and African countries. The hospital offers MRgFUS (Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound Therapy), a revolutionary treatment for essential tremors and other neurological disorders.

Neuroscience, the study of the nervous system, has made significant advancements in recent years. MRgFUS is a non-invasive, incision-less treatment that uses magnetic resonance imaging to precisely target and treat the affected areas of the brain. This innovative technology allows for accurate treatment planning and energy deposition without the need for incisions or permanent implants. At Royal Care Hospital, the focus is on providing a futuristic approach to medicine, especially in cases where traditional treatments like medications and therapies have proven ineffective. The hospital’s MRgFUS treatment is known for its optimal safety, minimal risk, and impressive results.

One of the standout features of MRgFUS at Royal Care Neuroscience Hospital is the minimal hospitalisation required. The procedure is typically completed in a single session, with patients returning home the same day. The treatment is personalised by highly experienced doctors who ensure sub-millimetre precision in targeting the affected areas of the brain. This outpatient treatment is particularly effective for hand tremors, offering visible results almost immediately. With over 21 years of experience in treating neurological disorders, Royal Care Hospital is a trusted name in the field of neuroscience.
