Discover our treatments
Many neurological and psychiatric disorders are caused by impaired brain communication. At BRAI3N, we repair these disturbances via neuromodulation, a scientifically based method that influences nerve cell activity to alleviate symptoms.

What is neuromodulation?
Neuromodulation is a treatment method that affects the functioning of nerve cells in the brain or peripheral nervous system. This can be done in two ways:
1. Non-invasive neuromodulation
Influencing brain activity without surgical intervention. This is done via electrodes on the skin or magnetic stimulation. They can be performed on an outpatient basis, which means you can simply go home after the session.
2. Invasive neuromodulation
Direct stimulation of the brain or nerves via implanted electrodes. This requires surgical intervention and is only used after thorough evaluation when non-invasive methods have insufficient effect.
Non-invasive neuromodulation
Non-invasive neuromodulation affects brain activity without surgical intervention. This is done with the help of electrodes that are placed on the (head) skin or via magnetic stimulation.
Transcranial Electrical Stimulation (TeS)
An umbrella term for various electrical stimulation techniques:

Invasieve neuromodulatie
Invasieve neuromodulatie wordt overwogen wanneer niet-invasieve behandelingen onvoldoende effect hebben. Hierbij worden elektroden chirurgisch geïmplanteerd om specifieke hersengebieden of perifere zenuwen te stimuleren.
Diepe Hersenstimulatie (DBS)
Een elektrode wordt in de hersenen geplaatst om specifieke hersengebieden elektrisch te stimuleren.
Perifere Zenuwstimulatie (PNS)
Implantatie van een elektrode nabij perifere zenuwen om pijn- of bewegingsklachten te verlichten.
Medication
Although neuromodulation is central to our treatment approach, medication can play a supportive role in some cases. Medication influences brain function by regulating the chemical balance in the brain.
Psychotropic drugs
For the treatment of mood disorders, anxiety disorders and psychotic complaints.
Antiepileptic drugs
Sometimes used to lower the excitability of the nervous system, especially for chronic pain or mood disorders.
Pain relievers
To support chronic pain syndromes, often in combination with neuromodulation.
