TMS targets specific brain circuits involved in depression.

It’s FDA-approved, covered by insurance, and free of medication side effects.

Most patients experience significant improvement - even after meds have failed.

Understanding Depression

Everyone feels sad sometimes. But Major Depression is different - it’s a medical condition that affects how your brain functions. Symptoms can include:


  • Persistent sadness or emptiness
  • Loss of interest or pleasure
  • Sleep or appetite changes
  • Thoughts of self-harm or suicide


If these symptoms continue, it may be time to seek treatment.

Treatment Options

Mild depression may respond to therapy or lifestyle changes. Moderate to severe cases often require medication and/or brain stimulation therapies.


Antidepressants:


Work for many, but not all. Side effects and trial-and-error dosing are common. Up to 30% of patients don’t respond long-term.


Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT):


Highly effective but invasive. Requires anesthesia and is typically reserved for severe, resistant cases.

What Is TMS Therapy?

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, drug-free treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate underactive areas of the brain involved in depression.

Can be used with or without medication

TMS essentially “recalibrates” brain circuits stuck in negative feedback loops - helping your brain regain healthy activity patterns.

How TMS Works

  • A magnetic coil is placed gently on your scalp


  • Repetitive pulses activate specific brain regions


  • Over time, these regions become more balanced and effective


  • Newer techniques like Theta Burst Stimulation (iTBS) mimic natural brain firing for faster results


Think of TMS like a guided workout for your brain - strengthening the areas responsible for mood and emotional regulation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is TMS and how can it help my depression?

TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) is a non-invasive treatment that uses brief magnetic pulses to stimulate brain areas involved in mood. It’s FDA-cleared for depression, does not require anesthesia or cause the systemic side effects common with many medications, and is often used when therapy or meds alone haven’t given lasting relief.
