We understand that exploring a new treatment for depression can bring up many questions. That’s why we’re committed to providing clear, compassionate education about Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS).
What is TMS?
TMS is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive, drug-free treatment for individuals with depression who haven’t found relief from medication. Using gentle magnetic pulses, it activates the parts of the brain responsible for mood regulation helping restore balance over time.
Is it safe?
Yes. TMS requires no anesthesia, allows you to return to normal activities immediately, and does not cause memory loss or personality changes. Most patients report only mild scalp discomfort during the first few sessions.
What can you expect?
A typical session lasts 20–40 minutes, five days a week, for about six weeks. You remain awake and comfortable the entire time. Many people read, relax, or listen to music during treatment.
Does it work?
Absolutely. Research shows that 60–70% of patients experience significant improvement, and up to half achieve full remission. Many report lasting relief even one year after completing treatment.
If you or someone you know is struggling with depression despite medication, TMS may be a life-changing option.
