Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a safe and effective treatment for depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and other common mental health conditions. This innovative therapy uses gentle magnetic pulses to stimulate specific areas of the brain that regulate mood, helping to alleviate symptoms of depression. During a typical 20-minute session, patients relax comfortably in a chair and are able to drive themselves home afterward.
TMS is a non-invasive, drug-free therapy that does not require anesthesia or hospitalization, and it has minimal systemic side effects. As an FDA-cleared technology, TMS reestablishes the connections in the brain without the common side effects associated with traditional medications, and it is often covered by most insurance plans.
