Thinking about transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) but not sure what to expect? You are not alone. This is one of the most common questions we hear.

Most patients describe TMS as a gentle tapping sensation along with a clicking sound during treatment. It is non-invasive, does not require sedation, and you stay awake and comfortable the entire time. Many people read, scroll, or watch TV during their sessions.

There is no downtime after treatment. You can drive yourself home and get back to your day right away.

If you are feeling unsure or just want to learn more, we are here to help. We offer free informational sessions so you can understand what TMS is like and decide if it feels right for you. Call, text (562-250-4516) or visit our website linked pacificmindhealth.com/tms-information-session/

Many people try to manage anxiety on their own for a long time. You may notice yourself avoiding certain situations, feeling constantly on edge, or struggling to concentrate at work or school. Social anxiety, social phobia, or fear related to public speaking can make everyday interactions feel exhausting or overwhelming.

These experiences can be isolating and confusing, especially when they begin to affect relationships or work. Anxiety treatment can help significantly reduce symptoms and restore a sense of control. If anxiety is affecting your daily life, we encourage you to contact our compassionate team at Pacific Mind Health to discuss your concerns.

Struggling with depression that hasn’t responded to medications? Each new trial of a medication lowers the chances of remission, dropping to just 7% after a fourth round.

TMS is an innovative, FDA-approved therapy that uses focused magnetic pulses to stimulate the areas of the brain that control mood. In one study, 58% of patients with treatment-resistant depression responded, with 37% achieving full remission.
