Benefits of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
(TMS)

Did you know that you can overcome depression in 6 to 8 weeks with
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation? TMS is a depression treatment that
involves the use of an electromagnetic coil to create magnetic pulses
that stimulate the brain to decrease the symptoms of depression.

The Benefits of Transcranial Magnetic
Stimulation

A Non-invasive Treatment

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is non-invasive. Other treatments
such as deep brain stimulation and shock therapy are invasive and can be
risky. TMS therapy is similar to talk therapy, they are both
non-invasive compared to other treatments. TMS is non-surgical.

TMS is Effective

Out of 3 patients, 2 get better in 6 weeks. This makes TMS an
effective and quick treatment. If you have battled depression for years,
TMS can help you get better in just 6 weeks.

TMS has mild side effects

Antidepressant drugs offer a popular treatment option but these drugs
can cause undesirable side effects such as strong headaches, weight
gain, etc. TMS on the other hand doesn’t leave any major side effects.
Side effects involved in TMS include a mild headache, lightheadedness,
or mild discomfort in the area where the electromagnetic coil is
placed.

A non-addictive treatment

Antidepressants can become addictive especially to patients who use
them for a long time. With TMS, once the sessions are completed, the
patient can resume a normal life.

TMS has no memory issues

Shock therapy for depression has the risk of causing memory problems
but TMS doesn’t cause any cognition issues.

Is Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation right for
me?

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is a common depression treatment in
cases where the patient has developed resistance to other treatments.
