If you are diagnosed with Major Depression Disorder (MDD), TMS may bean alternative treatment for you. Depression affects a patient’s normallife and interferes with their pattern of thoughts. TMS is a treatmentthat targets the brain. The procedure involves stimulating nerve cellsin the brain using magnetic fields. Treatments target a specific part ofthe brain that controls …

During TMS therapy for depression, a patient sits in a chair while a helmet is gently placed over the head. An electromagnetic coil inside the helmet painlessly delivers brief magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain that may be “asleep” because of a major depressive disorder. TMS therapy for depression does not require …

You can beat depression and live a happier and more fulfilling life. Notwithstanding what you’re going through in life, depression therapy can help you in several ways. Our experienced therapists can recommend the ideal therapy or treatment procedure to help you with depression issues.  What is Depression? Depression is a mood disorder that entails a …

TMS Therapy employs magnetic fields to treat mood and behavior issues. In order to deliver the right amount of stimulation, MRI-strength magnetic fields are created with the TMS Therapy system. The treatment coil is positioned on the patient’s head over the left prefrontal cortex, which is associated with mood regulation.  The magnetic treatment coil only …

TMS Therapy is a simple FDA-approved procedure that has proved to be effective.  TMS is a non-invasive, targeted treatment that is statistically safer than any antidepressant medication. Medications are ingested, and therefore have diffuse and systemic reactions through the entire body, which leads to a wide range of side-effects like weight gain, fatigue and drowsiness, …

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is an FDA-approved procedure for treating depression. Unlike ECT, which applies electricity, our TMS device employs cutting-edge technology to address the cause of depression using simple magnets. TMS also has numerous protocols that our office uses to address a range of mental conditions.  We have many TMS specialists who will customize …

Commons Questions About TMS Therapy  TMS therapy for depression stimulates a part of the brain that is involved in moods and emotions. It does not cause memory loss or harmful side effects, unlike electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Because magnetic pulses only reach a small portion of the brain directly beneath the treatment coil, moods are affected …

The TMS Therapy system produces the same magnetic fields as MRI machines using quick, highly concentrated pulses. The treatment coil is positioned above the left prefrontal cortex, which regulates mood. Because of this, these fields will be focused there.  Magnetic pulses traveling through the brain only reach a small portion directly beneath the treatment coil, …

TMS was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration in 2008 after being tested on over one hundred patients. TMS uses a metal coil placed on the scalp to generate rapidly changing magnetic fields. The induced electric currents cross the skull nearly unimpeded and depolarize cortical neurons in a specific location.  TMS Therapy Actually …
