For about 11 million Americans, involuntary tremors are a constant problem that can interfere with just about everything — getting dressed, drinking a cup of coffee or using a cell phone. This trembling can be caused by Parkinson’s disease, but more often it’s caused by Essential tremor, a benign, often inherited condition.
Our speakers will describe the newest approaches for diagnosing and controlling Essential or Parkinson’s tremors, including medications and deep brain stimulation, a minimally invasive surgical procedure.
- Speakers: Kara Beasley, DO, with Boulder Neurosurgical & Spine Associates and Alan Zacharias, MD, with Associated Neurologists
- Date: Thursday, April 25, from 11 a.m. to noon
- Location: Boulder Jewish Community Center, 6007 Oreg Ave.
