Get to know OCD The Brain Treatment That Interrupts OCD Signals
Deep brain stimulation is one of the most advanced treatments for severe OCD. It involves implanting tiny electrodes into specific brain circuits and delivering continuous, low-level electrical pulses that interrupt faulty signals driving obsessions and compulsions. This therapy isn’t a first-line option — it’s reserved for people who haven’t responded to other treatments — but for some, it can dramatically reduce symptoms. Sound like a sci-fi movie? In this episode, Dr. Rachel Davis explains how the groundbreaking therapy works, plus shares her own lived experience with OCD.
