The safe and effective outpatient treatment is for individuals diagnosed with major depressive disorder (MDD) or similar disorders who have not experienced satisfactory improvement from antidepressant medication.

TMS Therapy differs from traditional drug therapy because it employs MRI-strength magnetic pulses that are targeted only to specific regions of the brain involved in mood regulation areas known to be under-active in those diagnosed with MDD.

TMS Therapy activates and raises the levels of neurotransmitters in the brain dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin and can be used in conjunction with medication or as a stand-alone treatment.

In FDA clinical trials, two out of every three patients reported remission or a reduction in depression symptoms after completion of TMS Therapy. Subsequent studies have consistently shown three out of every four patients positively responding to TMS Therapy.

What to expect during TMS Therapy?

Although treatment varies by individual, a typical treatment course consists of:

During treatment, patients relax in a treatment chair and remain awake and alert.

The TMS Therapy device will deliver magnetic pulses to specific areas of your brain known to regulate mood. These pulses will feel like tapping on the scalp. Adjustments can be made by your TMS technician if the tapping is uncomfortable.

Mild headache or scalp discomfort is sometimes experienced at the site of stimulation during or after treatment. An over-the-counter analgesic may be taken to alleviate discomfort. If discomfort persists, the strength of the magnetic field pulses can be reduced to make treatment more comfortable.

After a treatment session, patients can immediately return to their normal routine, including driving.

In clinical trials, most patients experienced a positive response to TMS Therapy by the fourth week of treatment. Some patients may experience results in less time, while others may take longer. It is important to continually discuss any depression symptoms with your TMS technician.
