About DBS Therapy

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

Not everyone with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) responds well to medication or cognitive-behavioural therapy. Reclaim® DBS Therapy for OCD may relieve some of the symptoms of chronic, severe, treatment-resistant OCD.

What Is It?

Reclaim DBS uses a small, pacemaker-like device, placed under the skin of the chest, to send electronic signals to an area in the brain linked to OCD and may help reduce some of the symptoms of OCD.
