    COMMON QUERIES
    Freqently Asked Questions

    Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment for depression and other mental health conditions. It uses magnetic pulses to stimulate underactive areas of the brain responsible for mood regulation. Unlike medications, TMS does not involve drugs or surgery, making it a safe and effective alternative for individuals who have not responded well to traditional treatments.

    TMS therapy is designed for individuals diagnosed with major depressive disorder (MDD) who have tried antidepressant medications or therapy without significant improvement. It may also be helpful for people with anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and other neurological conditions. A consultation with our specialists can help determine if TMS is right for you.

    TMS therapy delivers repetitive magnetic pulses to specific areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. These pulses stimulate nerve cells, improving their activity and connectivity. Over the course of treatment, this increased activity can lead to a significant reduction in depression symptoms and an overall improvement in emotional well-being.

    Yes, TMS therapy is a well-researched, FDA-approved treatment with a strong safety record. It is non-invasive, meaning it does not require surgery or anesthesia, and does not have the systemic side effects associated with antidepressant medications, such as weight gain or drowsiness. The most common side effect is mild scalp discomfort or headaches, which typically subside after a few sessions.

    TMS is generally well-tolerated. The most common side effects include mild scalp discomfort, headaches, or lightheadedness, which typically decrease as treatment progresses. Serious side effects, such as seizures, are extremely rare. Our medical team will carefully assess your medical history to ensure TMS is a safe and appropriate option for you.

    Every patient responds differently, but many individuals begin to notice improvements in their mood and overall well-being within 2 to 4 weeks of starting treatment. Some may experience gradual improvement throughout the full course of therapy, while others may see results sooner. Consistency and completing the full treatment plan are key to achieving the best outcomes.

    Each TMS session lasts between 20 to 40 minutes, depending on your treatment plan. Patients typically undergo treatment five days a week for 4 to 6 weeks, though the exact duration may vary based on individual needs. Since TMS does not require sedation or recovery time, patients can resume their normal activities immediately after each session.

    Yes, most patients can continue taking their prescribed medications while undergoing TMS therapy. In some cases, adjustments to medication may be recommended for the best possible results. Our specialists will review your medical history and work with you to determine the most effective treatment approach.
