TMS Solutions – Englewood, NJ
Why choose TMS Solutions? “Witnessing for decades, but not understanding individuals who suffered from depression and other mental illnesses repeatedly try multiple antidepressants and other forms of treatment, only to become more depressed because the treatments didn’t work, is what motivated me to learn everything I could about TMS and start TMS Solutions, Inc. Seeing the lives of those who suffer from debilitating depression transform in six weeks is the very thing that, in the beginning, fueled our battles with insurance companies and Medicare to help over 30,000,000 people in the United States gain access to coverage for TMS. Today, that same fervor drives our belief that everyone deserves access to an affordable and proven effective treatment option – TMS, and it’s why push ourselves each day to advocate for our patients.” Christopher Blackburn FOUNDER
What does TMS therapy look like in Colorado Springs?
Where Clinics Sit Along I-25

Others are on Sinton Road west of the interstate, Parkmoor Village Drive on the east side, and South Circle Drive.

Faster Options Like Theta-Burst
Some clinics offer intermittent theta-burst stimulation, which delivers pulses in rapid bursts and needs only a few minutes per session instead of a standard 20 to 40. A few offices may also discuss accelerated schedules with more than one session a day. These options can help if your time is tight, but your provider decides which protocol suits your history and goals.
Getting Prior Authorization Approved
Most insurers want proof before they approve TMS. That usually means records of the antidepressants you have tried, how long you took them, and a recent depression score. Clinic staff often gather these records and submit the request for you. Approval can take days or weeks, so sign records releases early and keep a list of past medications handy.
Planning Around Military Life and Snow
Colorado Springs is home to Fort Carson, Peterson and Schriever Space Force Bases and the Air Force Academy, so many patients juggle duty schedules or a spouse's training. Ask about early slots before a shift. Winter snow can slow I-25 and Powers Boulevard, so find out how each clinic handles weather days and how it makes up a missed visit.

One missed visit is usually not a problem. Most clinics add the session at the end of your course or fit it in later that week. Call the office as early as you can so they can adjust your schedule and keep your treatment on track.
