FND Treatment
Overview
Neuvara’s TMS-enhanced treatment strategy is for people with FND that includes movement problems, such as weakness, paralysis, tremors and tics. It is delivered by our team of specialists who developed the strategy and currently are the only people worldwide who provide it.
The treatment strategy includes transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) enhanced treatment, specialised movement training and patient-centred education.
Neuvara’s TMS-enhanced treatment strategy can restore completely normal and effortless movement in one session.
About 75% of patients experience a full restoration of movement in one session, and over 90% of these patients maintain their gains long term.
Treatment Schedule
First, we will meet you online to see whether TMS-enhanced treatment is right for you. This takes around 15 minutes, is free of charge, and scheduled at a time that suits you. You are welcome to have one or two support people with you at every discussion and visit.
The initial consultation can be online or in person, and takes 60 minutes. One of our specialists will gather information about your medical history and current situation, and complete a TMS safety checklist with you.
The next step is a planning consultation, which can also be online or in person, and takes 60 minutes. One of our specialists will complete some standardised assessments with you, discuss what to expect during treatment.
Neuvara’s TMS-enhanced treatment is delivered over 3 consecutive days at the Clinical Research Centre at the University of Auckland, in Grafton, Auckland, New Zealand. Free underground parking is provided with mobility access.
