Fact: Depression is a clinically recognized mood disorder that impacts neurobiology, cognition, and emotional regulation.

Curious About How Soon TMS Can Improve Depression? ๐Ÿง 

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, FDA-approved therapy that can help people with treatment-resistant depression that we offer at our Ohio clinic. Results vary based on factors like symptom severity, treatment consistency, and complementary wellness strategies such as meditation, nutrition, and lifestyle support. Many patients notice improvements in as little as 2 weeks, while others may see full benefits over 6โ€“9 weeks.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is an innovative, non invasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate specific areas of the brain involved in mood, anxiety, and other mental health conditions. FDA cleared for treatment resistant depression and OCD, TMS is also used for PTSD, chronic pain, and more.

At Lopez Larson & Associates, Dr. Melissa Lopez Larson, Harvard trained psychiatrist, offers TMS as part of a holistic, personalized approach at the Ohio Clinic. Patients relax in a comfortable chair while a magnetic coil targets key brain regions, promoting long lasting changes in neural connections that can help improve mood and overall well being.

TMS may be right for you if you:
โœ… Havenโ€™t responded to medications or therapy
โœ… Canโ€™t tolerate medication side effects
โœ… Prefer a non medication approach
โœ… Are seeking an integrative treatment plan that includes sleep, nutrition, and wellness support

Treatment is safe, outpatient, and minimally invasive, with mild side effects that usually improve over time.
