VSN Therapy

Stimulation of the vagal nerve, known as VNS Therapy, is a non-drug treatment for people living with seizure disorders. VNS Therapy is indicated for use as an adjunctive therapy in reducing the frequency of seizures.  The therapy is appropriate for adults and adolescents over 12 years of age who experience partial onset of seizures that are not controlled by medication or who experience intolerable side effects. More than 50,000 people worldwide have been treated with VNS Therapy for epilepsy. The therapy is provided at TMCA by neurologist Dr. Rai Kakkar and neurosurgeon Dr. John Oró.
