How does TMS work?
Through the use of magnetic coils, our providers can help stimulate brain activity in areas associated with mood regulation.
To do this effectively, we start with an assessment and review of your clinical status and if appropriate schedule a TMS mapping, where our experts carefully assess your unique brain structure and determine the ideal stimulation parameters. These parameters include the intensity, frequency, comfortability and precise location of magnetic pulses. This customization ensures that the therapy is tailored to each patient’s specific needs and maximizes its effectiveness.
Once the mapping is complete, you find a schedule that works well with you and begin treatment.
How long is TMS treatment?
Our patients typically see us five days a week for an average of 30 sessions. Each treatment session generally lasts about 30 minutes.
Here’s what you can expect during your TMS treatment session.
You'll sit in a comfortable chair, wearing ear plugs, with the magnetic coil placed on your head.
When the machine is turned on, you'll hear clicking sounds and feel a gentle tapping on your head.
The procedure will last about 30 minutes, and you'll remain awake and alert.
After each treatment, you can return to your normal daily activities.
We will work with your primary medication prescriber and talk therapist to coordinate your TMS treatment so it aligns with your current regimen.
