What is TMS Therapy?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression. Unlike traditional antidepressant medications, TMS does not require ingesting drugs, making it an appealing option for many. The treatment is typically performed on an outpatient basis, meaning patients can return home the same day.
How Does TMS Work?
During a TMS session, our Charlotte-based clinicians will position a magnetic coil against your head. This device generates a magnetic pulse that passes through the skull and targets specific areas of the brain involved in mood control. The targeted stimulation helps to promote neural activity in regions that may be underactive in individuals experiencing depression.
