Question:
My Dad has this machine. We are wanting a setting that may help PSP (Progressive Supranuclear Palsy). Her neurologist said that maybe is what she has. She said definitely not Parkinsons.
Are there any settings we can try? We are desperate to try to help her.
Answer:
| Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) is a late-onset degenerative disease involving the gradual deterioration and death of specific volumes of the brain. The condition leads to symptoms including loss of balance, slowing of movement, difficulty moving the eyes, and cognitive impairment. PSP may be mistaken for other neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s, frontotemporal dementia and Alzheimer’s. The cause of the condition is uncertain, but involves accumulation of tau protein within the brain. Medications such as levodopa and amantadine may be useful in some cases. |
