FAQs
What is TMS therapy, and how does it work?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy is a non-invasive treatment for depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions. It works by delivering magnetic pulses to specific areas of the brain associated with mood regulation. These pulses stimulate neural activity, helping to alleviate symptoms and improve overall well-being.
Is TMS therapy safe?
Yes, TMS therapy is considered safe and well-tolerated for most individuals. It is FDA-approved for the treatment of depression and has been extensively studied in clinical trials. Common side effects are generally mild and may include headache or scalp discomfort during treatment sessions. Our clinic follows strict safety protocols to ensure the well-being of our patients throughout their treatment.
How long does a TMS therapy session take, and how many sessions are needed?
A typical TMS therapy session lasts approximately 25 to 30 minutes. The total number of sessions required varies for each individual but typically ranges around 30 sessions over four to six weeks. Your treatment plan will be tailored to your unique needs and response to therapy.
Will I need to take time off work or disrupt my daily routine for TMS therapy?
TMS therapy is an outpatient procedure that does not require any anesthesia or sedation, allowing you to resume your normal activities immediately after each session. Most patients can continue working, driving, and engaging in their regular daily routines throughout the course of treatment. Our flexible scheduling options make it convenient for you to fit TMS therapy into your schedule.
Is TMS therapy covered by insurance?
TMS therapy is covered by most PPO insurance providers, for the treatment of depression that has not responded to traditional antidepressant medications. Our clinic works with insurance companies to help determine your coverage eligibility and navigate the reimbursement process on your behalf. We also offer flexible payment options for those without insurance coverage.
