What is TMS Therapy?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression. Unlike traditional antidepressant medications, TMS does not require ingesting drugs and is typically well-tolerated with minimal side effects.
How Does TMS Work?
During a TMS session, our trained technicians will position a magnetic coil against your head. This device generates magnetic pulses that pass through the skull and reach specific areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. These pulses gently stimulate nerve cells, helping to restore abnormal brain activity patterns associated with depression.
