Sleep and epilepsy are closely linked – but why is rest actually so important? 💤

For many people with epilepsy, lack of sleep is one of the most common triggers for seizures. Even a single sleepless night or significantly irregular bedtimes can throw the brain out of balance – and increase the likelihood of a seizure. ⚡️

Regular sleep is therefore a key part of seizure prevention. Your brain loves routine: fixed bedtimes, even at the weekend, are well worth it. Also try to create a quiet, dark environment in your bedroom and avoid consuming caffeine, ni****ne or alcohol just before going to bed. ✔️

If, despite your best efforts, you sleep poorly, wake up frequently during the night or even experience breathing pauses, be sure to speak to your neurologist. Sleep disturbances can make it harder to control seizures, but there are solutions. And most importantly: you are not alone. Many people with epilepsy face similar challenges. 💜

Very important: Never stop taking your medication or change the dosage on your own to ‘sleep better’. Such adjustments should always be made under medical supervision. ‼️

If you have epilepsy and are having trouble sleeping, be sure to speak to your doctor. 💭

Imperceptible, yet powerfully effective: Did you know that EASEE® operates entirely hidden under the skin – without touching the brain?

✅ The EASEE® Lead electrode is placed under the skin on your head, directly above the area where your seizures start. You don’t have to worry about your whole head being shaved: only the small area where the incision for the electrode implantation is made will be shaved.

🔋 The EASEE® Power unit is placed under the skin on your chest, supplying power to the implant. In most cases, the components are not visible, so you can feel confident that your appearance reflects who you are – not your treatment.

💜 The strength of the stimulation is adjusted individually, so you won’t feel the stimulation. But you may feel something else: freedom.

Epileptic seizures are often very frightening for both the person having the seizure and bystanders. 😨

However, they usually stop on their own after 1 to 2 minutes. Even though the moment of a seizure can be overwhelming and frightening, in most cases epileptic seizures are not a medical emergency.

You should always call the emergency services if…📞

⚠️it is the person’s first seizure – as there may be unknown causes behind it
⏰the seizure lasts longer than 5 minutes
🔄several seizures happen back-to-back and the person does not regain consciousness
🌊the seizure happens in water (e.g. in the bath, a swimming pool, a lake or the sea)
🩸the person is seriously injured (e.g. head injuries or heavy bleeding)
🫁the person is struggling to breathe or turning blue
🤰you know the person is pregnant or has diabetes – as both conditions can lead to complications

🆘But even if you’re unsure, you can always call for an ambulance. What you can do in the meantime:

✅ Protect their head from hard edges
✅ Under no circumstances should you put anything in their mouth
✅ Is the person unconscious? If so, move their body into the recovery position
✅ Remove any dangerous objects in the immediate vicinity

❗Disclaimer: This information is not a substitute for medical advice – but it will help you assess emergencies more effectively.

Did you know that people with epilepsy wait an average of up to 22 years* before being offered an alternative treatment? 🤔

This often means many years of seizures, medication that isn’t effective enough, side effects and limitations in everyday life. 🧠

We believe that no one should have to wait that long to explore new treatment options. With EASEE®, we aim to provide people with drug-resistant focal epilepsy with an additional treatment option – for greater control, self-determination and quality of life. 💜

What makes EASEE® special 👇

🔍Clinically proven: A CE-certified option for people with focal epilepsy when medication is not enough.
💡Greater self-determination: You can actively shape your treatment through patient-controlled stimulation – EASEE® Access.
🛡️Minimally invasive & reversible: EASEE® is implanted on the skull rather than in the brain and can therefore be completely removed.
🧲 MRI-compatible: MRI scans are possible even with the system implanted.
🌱 Designed to give hope: For more energy, fewer worries and greater independence.

Please discuss your individual treatment options with your doctors. 🩺

When someone in your family is chronically ill, everything changes.

Everyday life. Your fears. Your thoughts. 💭

For people with epilepsy, relatives often carry an invisible burden: When will the next seizure come? Will the new medication help? How do we deal with it when the night once again brings no rest? 😶‍🌫️

Especially in drug-resistant epilepsy, it is a particular challenge not to lose hope. And this is exactly where EASEE® comes in: With the goal of giving people with epilepsy and their families more orientation, new perspectives, and a piece of freedom in everyday life. 🤍

On today’s Day of the Family, we would like to make you and your support more visible and say thank you – to all vigilant mothers and fathers, all compassionate siblings, all people who are there when things get difficult. 🫂

A strong social environment is an indispensable support for people with epilepsy. What you do is not a given. And it is incredibly valuable. 💜

Tag someone who is such a support for you. 🫶🏼

One out of hundreds of people who have chosen EASEE® is Tim. 👋🏻

Tim has lived with epilepsy since the age of two and had to endure hundreds of seizures a month. He tried numerous medications that had severe side effects and underwent stereotactic radiotherapy, but nothing had the desired effect – fewer seizures and a life with more freedom. 🤔

30 years later: Tim began his journey with EASEE®. A decision he carefully considered, researched thoroughly and ultimately made consciously. 🔎

Tim has transformed from someone whose daily life was marked by fear, uncertainty and constant inner stress into a strong, self-confident person who actively participates in his treatment and informs other patients about their options. 💜

Helping to shape your treatment should not be an option, but a must. EASEE® aims to make exactly that possible for you. ✨
