Movement disorders are neurological conditions caused by abnormal activity in the basal ganglia, cerebellum, or their connecting pathways — producing either too much movement (hyperkinetic: tremor, chorea, dystonia, tics, myoclonus) or too little (hypokinetic: slowness, stiffness, Parkinsonism). At KIMS Neuroscience Hyderabad, the movement disorders programme offers the full range of treatments from botulinum toxin injections to South India's first MRgFUS and Robotic-guided DBS.
- What they are
- Neurological conditions from abnormal basal ganglia or cerebellar activity — producing too much movement (tremor, chorea, dystonia) or too little (Parkinsonism).
- 10 conditions treated
- Essential tremor · dystonia · Tourette syndrome · Wilson's disease · RLS · hemifacial spasm · ataxia · myoclonus · chorea · neuroacanthocytosis.
- MRgFUS at KIMS
- First in Telangana and AP. Non-invasive, no incision, no implant, same-day tremor treatment using focused ultrasound.
- DBS at KIMS
- DBS using Stealth AutoGuide robotic guidance — India's first robotic DBS system. For Parkinson's, dystonia, and essential tremor.
- MVD at KIMS
- 90.5% permanent cure rate for hemifacial spasm after Microvascular Decompression surgery.
- When to seek help
- Any progressive involuntary movement · tremor affecting writing or eating · neck pulling to one side · facial twitching · unsteady walking. No referral needed at KIMS.

What Are Movement Disorders?
Movement disorders are neurological conditions where the brain produces unwanted movements—or fails to produce intended ones. These are often caused by issues in the basal ganglia, cerebellum, or their connecting pathways.
At KIMS Neuroscience, Secunderabad, we offer the most comprehensive program in South India. Our capability spans from specialist clinical assessment and advanced neuroimaging to Incision-less MRgFUS and Robotic-guided Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS).
Clinical Classification
Hyperkinetic Disorders
Too much movement: Tremor, Chorea, Dystonia, Tics, Myoclonus.Hypokinetic Disorders
Too little movement: Slowness, stiffness, and Parkinsonism.Conditions We Treat

Parkinson's is a specific hypokinetic disorder. 'Movement Disorders' is a broader category covering tremor, dystonia, Tourette's, ataxia, and more. KIMS treats the full spectrum of both hyperkinetic (too much movement) and hypokinetic (too little) conditions.
KIMS Neuroscience is the most comprehensive center in South India, being the only facility in Telangana and AP to offer both MRgFUS and robotic DBS. We provide the highest level of surgical and medical care.
No. You can book an appointment directly. However, bringing previous investigation reports or imaging (MRI/CT) will help our specialists provide a more efficient assessment.
MRgFUS (Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound) is a non-invasive procedure that uses ultrasound energy to treat tremors. KIMS pioneered this in the region. It requires no incisions or implants, and the patient remains awake.
Yes. The KIMS Neuroscience team performs DBS at KIMS. We use the first robotic cranial guidance system in India for precision electrode placement.
Consult KIMS immediately. We provide mandatory echocardiograms for rheumatic heart disease assessment and initiate long-term prophylaxis to prevent heart complications common in South India.
Yes — Wilson's disease is one of the few neurodegenerative conditions that is largely treatable when diagnosed early. KIMS uses serum ceruloplasmin, 24-hour urinary copper, slit-lamp examination for Kayser-Fleischer rings, and ATP7B genetic testing to confirm the diagnosis, then initiates lifelong copper-chelation or zinc therapy to prevent further brain and liver damage.
