1. A method for providing treatment therapy by a medical device to treat a nervous system disorder comprising the steps of: (a) implanting at least one therapy delivery element within a body of a patient; (b) implanting at least one monitoring element for sensing a neurological condition and generating a neurological signal; (c) coupling the therapy delivery element and the monitoring element to a therapy device, the therapy device including a seizure detection algorithm for processing the neurological signal, wherein the therapy device is capable of delivering therapy to the therapy delivery element and receiving the neurological signal from the monitoring element; (d) activating the therapy device to begin operation; (e) preventing the therapy device from delivering therapy to the patient for a predetermined quantity of block counts after the therapy device has been activated to allow the seizure detection algorithm to stabilize by monitoring the patient for the predetermined quantity of block counts to establish background data for nervous system disorder detection; and (f) processing the neurological signal by the seizure detection algorithm, after stabilization, to detect whether a nervous system disorder has occurred using the background data.
