TMS is a revolutionary safe FDA clear non-invasive treatment for chronic depression During depression, the brain is not operating at full capacity in the areas, responsible for emotion and emotional regulation. The emotional control center of the brain is less active or even inactive. Signals along the neural pathways to and from the brain that would normally regulate mood and emotions do not work properly when a person is clinically depressed.
Transcranial, magnetic stimulation therapy works by sending short, magnetic pulses to target the exact areas of the brain affected by depression, stimulating, and activating these neural pathways so that the inactive signals begin firing and working again this restoring the emotional control.
TMS is non-invasive and well treated by vast majority of patients. The person receiving TMS is awake during the treatment and can return to normal activities immediately after, because no medication or anesthesia is required.
Treatment time can reach from five minutes to 60 minutes depending on type of therapy a typical course of treatment is approximately six weeks TMS therapy meal for an alternative treatment option for patient who do not respond well to medication or are unable to tolerate it.
