Is Tms right for you?

Depression
Treatment

Depression is a medical condition that affects mood, energy, thinking and daily functioning. Symptoms may develop gradually or appear suddenly and can vary in intensity. Many individuals respond well to therapy or medication, while others continue to experience symptoms despite multiple treatment attempts.
Common symptoms may include persistent sadness, loss of interest, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, changes in appetite or sleep patterns and a sense of emotional heaviness. When these symptoms remain despite treatment, it may be considered treatment-resistant depression.

Why Some Symptoms
Do Not Improve with Medication

Depression involves specific brain circuits that can remain underactive even when medication is used. In some individuals:
  • Multiple medications do not activate the affected areas sufficiently
  • Side effects limit the use of certain antidepressants
  • Symptoms return after temporary improvement
  • Biological and genetic factors play a role
In such cases, additional treatment approaches may be required.

How TMS Supports
Depression Treatment

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) uses focused magnetic pulses to stimulate brain regions involved in mood regulation. Unlike medication, which affects the whole body, TMS targets the neural pathways directly.
  • Increasing activity in underactive mood networks
  • Enhancing communication between brain regions
  • Supporting gradual and steady symptom improvement
  • Offering a non-medication approach with minimal side effects
Many individuals with long-standing or treatment-resistant depression report meaningful improvement after a complete course of TMS.

Who May Benefit
from TMS?

TMS may be appropriate for individuals who:
  • Have tried two or more antidepressants without sufficient improvement
  • Do not tolerate medications well
  • Prefer a non-invasive treatment
  • Have chronic depressive symptoms affecting daily life
A psychiatric evaluation is required to determine suitability.

Research Supporting TMS

TMS is FDA-cleared and supported by extensive clinical research demonstrating its effectiveness in treating major depressive disorder. Studies show improvements in mood, functioning and long-term symptom stability for many patients.
