New Delhi Therapy: Stroke Patients Walk, Speak Again

• A new Neuromodulation and Foot Pressure Analysis Laboratory has opened at Atal Bihari Vajpayee Institute of Medical Sciences and Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital in Delhi.
• The therapy treats conditions like stroke, severe head injuries, Parkinson's disease, mobility issues, and back/neck pain.
• It utilizes neuronavigation and transcranial magnetic stimulation to activate injured brain areas, leading to rapid recovery.
• A stroke patient, Ranjeet Kumar, regained speech and mobility after receiving the free therapy, improving his condition by 90%.
• The OPD offers the therapy six days a week; it's suitable for patients over 3 years old but not for pregnant women, epilepsy patients, or those with implants.

Why It Matters: New therapy offers hope for stroke recovery and neurological conditions.
