Neurolith in Mallorca: advanced technology against Alzheimer's"

What is Neurolith treatment?

TPS® technology (Transcranial Pulse Stimulation) is a non-invasive method that acts on deep areas of the brain to treat mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease. Its action improves cerebral blood circulation, stimulates neuronal regeneration, and reduces the progression of cognitive decline.

Who is Neurolith treatment indicated for in Mallorca?

01.

Newly diagnosed Alzheimer's patients

Neurolith treatment is indicated in the early stages of Alzheimer’s, when relevant cognitive abilities are still preserved. Its goal is to slow deterioration, stimulate neuronal connectivity, and preserve autonomy for as long as possible, as part of a comprehensive therapeutic approach.

02.

People with mild cognitive impairment

Neurolith can be an effective tool for people with mild cognitive impairment, helping to improve attention, memory, and other executive functions. Its early application aims to stabilise or even reverse some symptoms, preventing progression towards more severe conditions.

What benefits does Neurolith offer for Alzheimer's patients?

Neurolith® treatment, a transcranial shock wave stimulation technology, offers promising benefits for patients with Alzheimer’s disease in mild and moderate stages. According to a reviewed clinical document, this non-invasive method activates specific areas of the brain related to memory and cognition, which can help slow cognitive decline. Furthermore, the therapy stimulates neurogenesis and improves cerebral blood flow, contributing to better overall brain function.

What is Neurolith treatment like in Mallorca?

Neurolith® treatment at IMAR Palma is specifically designed for patients with Alzheimer’s in mild or moderate stages, and is carried out through non-invasive brain stimulation sessions using transcranial shock waves. The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis, meaning no hospitalisation is required, and is applied directly to the scalp using a handpiece that emits controlled pulses. Each session lasts between 20 and 30 minutes, and the protocol typically includes several sessions per week over a set period, adapted to the patient’s progress and tolerance.

What are the biological effects of TPS on the brain?

Mechanotransduction
Increased cellular permeability
Stimulation of mechanosensitive ion channels
Nitric oxide (NO) release, causing vasodilation, increased metabolism, angiogenesis, and an anti-inflammatory effect
Stimulation of vascular growth factors (VEGF)
BDNF stimulation
Migration and differentiation of stem cells

Is Neurolith treatment painful?

No, Neurolith® treatment is not painful. It is a non-invasive technique based on the application of low-intensity transcranial shock waves, performed on an outpatient basis and without the need for anaesthesia. During the session, the patient remains seated or lying down while the device’s handpiece is applied to the scalp over the selected brain areas. Most patients describe the sensation as light tapping or vibrations, with no significant discomfort. No wounds are caused and the skin is not affected, and after the session the patient can return to their daily routine completely normally.

La mayoría de los pacientes describe la sensación como ligeros toques o vibraciones, sin molestias significativas. No se generan heridas ni se altera la piel, y tras la sesión se puede volver a la rutina diaria con total normalidad.

Are there any side effects after treatment?

Neurolith® treatment is generally very well tolerated and does not present any significant side effects. As it is a non-invasive technique that requires neither medication nor anaesthesia, the associated risks are minimal. In the majority of cases, patients experience no discomfort or adverse effects after the sessions and can resume their daily routine immediately. Occasionally, some people may notice a slight sensation of pressure or fatigue in the treated area, but these symptoms are typically mild and transitory.

Ocasionalmente, algunas personas podrían notar una ligera sensación de presión o cansancio en la zona tratada, pero estos síntomas suelen ser leves y transitorios.
