Medical treatment device and method for stimulating neurons of a patent to suppress a pathologically synchronous activity thereof

A medical treatment device for stimulating neurons of a patient to suppress a pathologically synchronous activity of the neurons, comprising a non-invasive stimulation unit configured for simultaneously administering at least one acoustic stimulus and at least one non-acoustic stimulus to a patient's body, each of which is configured to suppress the pathologically synchronous activity when being administered to the patient's body,

• wherein the stimulation unit comprises a vibrotactile stimulating element which is configured to oscillatingly or periodically act onto a surface of the patient's body so as to simultaneously administer the non-acoustic stimulus and the acoustic stimulus to the patient's body,
• wherein the stimulation unit is configured to simultaneously generate the acoustic stimulus and the non-acoustic stimulus upon oscillatingly or periodically actuating the vibrotactile stimulating element,
• wherein when being administered to the patient's body, the acoustic stimulus is configured to suppress a pathologically synchronous activity of a first neuronal population, in particular in at least one of a patient's brain or spinal cord, and the non-acoustic stimulus is configured to suppress a pathologically synchronous activity of a second neuronal population, in particular in at least one of a patient's brain or spinal cord, which is different or delimited from the first neuronal population.
