Neuromodulation, as defined as the use of electrical stimulation by implanted stimulators to treat various neurological conditions, has developed gradually from long experience with electrical stimulation of the nervous system. Indications are still evolving, and the field is advancing at an ever increasing rate.

DBS had been used since the 1950s for treatment of psychiatric patients, but this practice was abandoned due to ethical objections, as well as the introduction of neuroleptics, and thereafter for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, dystonias, obsessive–compulsive disorder and epilepsy.
