TMS therapy is a safe and effective treatment option for a number of mental health conditions. Studies suggest that approximately 7 in 10 patients respond to TMS therapy, and 5 in 10 patients are able to achieve long-lasting relief from their symptoms. Research on the efficacy of TMS therapy as a treatment for different conditions is ongoing.
Before beginning TMS treatment, a doctor will screen your overall health as well as develop a treatment plan. A typical TMS treatment plan may include in-office TMS treatment 5 days a week for 4-6 weeks. Individual TMS treatment sessions last from 19-37 minutes. Before your TMS session, you will check in with office staff. In the exam room, you will recline in a comfortable treatment chair as the small, curved magnetic coil used to administer TMS therapy is placed against your head. During TMS therapy, you will receive focused magnetic stimulation to the target areas of your brain. You will hear a clicking sound and may feel a light tapping against your head during the session, but this should not be painful. After TMS therapy, you can be on your way and resume your normal daily activities. TMS does not affect your memory or alertness, so it’s safe to drive yourself home.
