A. Deep brain stimulation

Explanation:

Deep brain stimulation is a surgical method used by the neurologists to treat the symptoms of Parkinson's disease and other muscle activities.

During DBS, the electrodes are placed in the affected portion of the brain where when activated generates the electrical signal and control the muscle activities.

The DBS procedure involves the puncturing of the tow small holes in the skull where two electrodes are inserted, one in the right portion and the other in the left portion.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.
