My older brother was diagnostic 6 years a go with PD and last Monday had an appointment with Dr. Tuma, but he was not so enthusiastic because is temporary and not warranty to get better. His constant search for cure alternatives, he found this new treatment that initially was aim for head tumors and them applying for PD and see good result. Is more expensive but is worthy trying. The cost is range between 15K-17K in Lima Peru. But I see the have one in USA Seattle, WA.
Here is the links, first the one in Lima, Peru. and second in USA Seattle. WA.
