Sarilla Gowthami

Brain stimulation therapy is a procedure that uses electrodes or magnets within the brain or on the scalp to treat some serious mental disorders that don't respond successfully to commonly used psychotherapies and medications. There are several sorts of brain stimulation therapies, including electroshock (ECT), vagus stimulation (VNS), repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), magnetic seizure therapy (MST), and deep brain stimulation (DBS).
