Asha Neuro Modulation Unit

We at Asha Hospital perform Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation (NIBS) techniques like Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS), apart from doing ECT on regular basis, which helps as an adjunct to the medical management in various Neuro-Psychiatric disorders.

We have already completed a Decade of our Journey in Neuromodulation.

We perform at least 40+ sessions of TMS, 10+ sessions of tDCS and 10+ sessions of Biofeedback on daily basis in our Main hospital at Banjara hills.

We have completed doing almost 150,000 sessions of TMS, 50,000 sessions of tDCS and Biofeedback.

Now in 2022, we have started a new specialized centre for Neuromodulation, AshaNeuromodulation Clinic (ANC), at Gachibowli. It is a Speciality Outpatient Centre for Consultations, Counselling sessions, TMS, Deep TMS, Neuro-navigation, t DCS, Biofeedback etc It is almost the only private institution in India, to use the advanced Brainsway Deep TMS and TMS with Neuronavigation.

We have a team of Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Technicians and staff who have vast experience in the field of Neuromodulation.

TMS: (Trans Cranial Magnetic Stimulation)

It is Very Safe, Easy and a Non-Invasive procedure that uses High strength pulsed Magnetic fields to induce a depolarizing current in a localized area of the Cerebral cortex.

Effects:

Cortical Plasticity
Cortical Excitation and Inhibition
Stabilization of Neurochemical imbalance
Increases BDNF
Effect on Hypo-Thalmo-Pituitary-Adrenal axis
Changes in Cerebral blood flow
Changes in Neuronal activity at Peripheral and also Deeper structures

Procedure:

Both FDA and CE approved for many Psychiatric problem.
Safe and Non-invasive
20 to 30 mins/session
Can be done on Out-Patient/In patient basis.
NoAdverse side effects
Will not interfere with your daily activities
Doctors will do a detailed Assessment and Screening before the procedure.

Conditions: Depression, OCD, Anxiety, Addictions, Auditory Hallucinations, Cognitive impairments, Negative symptoms in Schizophrenia, Parkinson’s Diseases, Suicidal Ideations etc

Equipment:

We at Asha Hospital use Advanced FDA and CE approved Equipment and Coils for TMS.

We at Asha Hospital use Advanced FDA and CE approved Equipment and Coils for TMS.
- a) MCF-P-B65 Coil exclusively for Depression, Anxiety, Auditory Hallucinations, Cognitive dysfunctions, Negative symptoms in Schizophrenia, Parkinson’s Diseases, Suicidal Ideations, Addiction etc.
- b) We use the Advanced Double Cone Coil (Cool D-B80) which was recently approved by FDA in 2020 for OCD.
Brainsway Deep TMS machine: Advanced Neuromodulation technique to stimulate the deeper structures of the brain.
Neuronavigation: MRI and Non-MRI based advanced technology to locate the target site for the TMS procedure. (Brain mapping)

Asha Hospital is the only Private hospital in India to use the Advanced Brainsway Deep TMS and Neuronavigation.

tDCS: (Trans Cranial Direct Current Stimulation)

Direct Current is used in this technique to electrically stimulate the cortex of the brain through the skull (transcranial). Two electrodes covered with sponge like material soaked in saline solution are used as cathode and anode. By placing the electrodes on specific locations on the scalp and completing the circuit, current flows into the superficial layers of cortex and produces the desired effect. Cathode produces an inhibitory effect while the anode produces an excitatory effect.

Conditions: Depression, Anxiety, Hallucinations, Cognitive Dysfunctions etc

Biofeedback:

Biofeedback is a mutually interactive learning experience provided to the client by the facilitator in the unit. This experience to the patients will help in achieving self-control on their behaviour.

Technique: Using Computer-aided Feedback, the patient will be trained to self-control various aspects of behaviour, mostly, the visceral behaviour. Wireless Radio Frequency Modules convert the physiological signals into electrical signals and present them on the computer screen, which will be then available for modulation and analysis.

Accessories: RF Modules which can record and present up to 13 various physiological parameters are available at Asha hospital. E.g., EMG, Thermal, EEG, EDG, SCL, Resp. etc.

Electromyography (EMG) – measures muscle tension
Thermal biofeedback – measures skin temperature
Neurofeedback/ electroencephalography (EEG) – measures brain wave activity
Electro-demography (EDG) – measures skin electrical activity

Procedure: After an initial education session on Biofeedback, the patient will be exposed to suitable therapy type and training for few sessions, usually about 3-5. Number of sessions depends on degree of learning and the objective improvement in the parameters. Serial assessments will help modify the session type and design.

Conditions: Depression, OCD, Anxiety, Panic attacks, Stress, PTSD, Insomnia, Pain, Migraine

We are Happy and Excited to announce that we have started a separate exclusive Speciality Neuromodulation Centre, Asha Neuromodulation Clinic (ANC)in the heart of the Modern City at Gachibowli.
