TMS – Transcranial Magnetic Therapy

TMS, which stands for Transcranial Magnetic Therapy, is a non-invasive procedure that stimulates specific regions of the brain to treat depression. FDA-approved in 2008, TMS is often used to manage treatment-resistant depression.

NeuroStar uses transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to target key areas of the brain that are underactive in people with depression. It is not ECT (electroconvulsive therapy).

While the exact cause of depression is not known, the leading scientific theory is that it is caused by an imbalance of the brain’s neurotransmitters, which are chemical messengers that send signals between brain cells.

This is an amazing office with amazing technology; it really does work! I wish more people were aware of TMS and that I found it sooner. The hardest part for me was reaching out for help when I felt so terrible, but I’m so glad I did.
