UNDERSTANDING
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, FDA-approved therapy that uses magnetic fields to stimulate specific areas of the brain, particularly those involved in mood regulation. TMS is commonly used to treat depression, anxiety, and addiction, especially when other treatments have proven less effective. It is a powerful option for those seeking alternatives to medication.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)
HOW TMS IS
Performed
During a TMS session, a magnetic coil is placed over the scalp, typically targeting the prefrontal cortex, which plays a key role in mood and impulse control. The coil delivers magnetic pulses that gently stimulate nerve cells in this area, promoting neuroplasticity and helping to regulate brain activity. Sessions are typically brief (about 20-40 minutes) and are conducted over several weeks to achieve optimal results. Because TMS is non-invasive, it does not require anesthesia, and clients can resume normal activities immediately after treatment.

TREATMENT
Benefits
TMS offers significant benefits for clients who have not responded well to traditional treatments like medication or talk therapy. By stimulating specific brain regions, TMS helps improve mood, reduce cravings, and alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety. Clients experience increased motivation, better emotional regulation, and a reduction in relapse risk. TMS is especially advantageous because it provides these benefits without the side effects often associated with medication, making it a safe and effective option for sustainable mental health and recovery.
