Best Essential Tremor Treatment in Mumbai
Mumbai, famous for Bollywood is the city of dreams. There are innumerable stories of actors, directors and choreographers who have made rags to riches in Bollywood. The industry outsiders have also outshining careers in Bollywood. It is also home to famous celebrities with luxurious bungalows and sea-facing apartments in high-rise buildings. Bombay was its name, and songs like ‘ye hai Bombay meri jaan were written about Mumbai. Even though the film industry is one of the contributors to the economy of Mumbai with numerous production houses, there are also several sectors like financial services, IT and software, manufacturing, logistics and shipping which have helped to boost the economy, which is much more developed. One of my friends lives in Mumbai and owns an apartment there, and she feels blessed as it’s a big deal to own a property in Mumbai, she says. The rental apartments and houses are also expensive compared to other Metropolitan cities.
Ageing gracefully is possible for some of us who are either blessed or pledged to keep ourselves healthy and fit through a balanced diet, regular exercising, and a holistic approach to health. For some of us, it would get difficult to perform regular tasks such as cleaning, cooking, dressing, or eating, which might get complicated. This might be due to trembling hands, legs, head, torso, or any body part, primarily in older adults. This is due to twitching or involuntary movements of muscles by contraction and relaxation. This could be due to tremors, a neurological condition responsible for involuntary and rhythmic shaking.
Tremors are broadly classified as rest tremors and action tremors. A rest tremor is the shaking of any part of the body while a person is ina resting condition. A person who has Parkinsons disease is experiencing a rest tremor. An action tremor is experienced when a person tries to move any body part or gets into action. One of the significant causes of tremors is damage to the cerebellum or lack of coordination between the cerebellum and other parts of the brain.
Essential tremor is also known as familial tremor because, in most cases, it is inherent and due to an altered gene. It is a disorder that primarily affects hands, and the condition worsens as the patient gets into movement. It also affects the head, trunk, and voice. In the beginning, it is not very noticeable but aggravates with time, mostly on one side of the body. Some factors responsible for aggravation are fatigue, emotional stress, extreme temperatures, nicotine, alcohol, certain medications and caffeine.
The best treatment of Essential tremors is now available at Royalcare Neurosciences Hospital in the Indian subcontinent, Middle East and African countries with MRgFUS [Magnetic Resonance guided Focused Ultrasound Therapy] for the treatment of a spectrum of neurological disorders with more than 21 years of experience. Neuroscience studies the nervous system from structure, function, and development to degeneration. MRgFUS is an incision-less treatment that makes it painless. It uses Magnetic resonance imaging for target definition, treatment planning and closed-loop control of energy deposition with no incisions or permanent implants. At Royalcare Hospital, there is a futuristic approach to medicine and treatment for essential tremors where medications, rehabilitation and therapies are not very effective in some cases with optimal safety and least risk.
One of the most remarkable features of MRgFUS at the Royalcare Neuroscience Hospital is the minimum hospitalisation. The procedure requires a single session with experienced and highly qualified doctors who personalise the treatment with sub-millimetre target movement. The outpatient treatment is also strikingly impressive for treating hand tremors. The innovative technology of MRgFUS targets the precise spots in the brain for treatment, all in a single sitting. The patient returns home the same day, with no hospitalisation needed with visible results.
