TMS Treatment

Is Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) right for you?

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) provides safe and effective treatment for depression. It is a technique that uses powerful, focused magnetic field pulses to stimulate the neurons of the brain. TMS stimulates areas of the brain that are underactive because of depression. It is a safe, non-invasive procedure that uses electromagnetic energy.

TMS therapy for major depression and other mental disorders is proven.

First used in Europe in 1985, the FDA approved TMS for the treatment of medication-resistant depression in 2008. Over 1000 TMS centers are in operation globally. TMS is the only FDA approved non-invasive treatment for depression. Clinicians report 60-80% patient positive response and/ or full remission of depressive symptoms. In contrast, patients who have not responded to two or three medications, only have a 15% chance that the next medication will work. In fact, TMS has proven very effective for the treatment of resistant depression and is often used to treat other mental disorders.
