Specialty Treatment

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (nTMS)

TMS Therapy Introduction

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (nTMS)

Feeling like you have tried everything to manage depression? You are not alone. For millions, traditional treatments do not always provide the relief they need. But there is a promising new frontier in mental health: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS).

RapidRecovery nTMS is a non-invasive treatment for depression. TMS means stimulating the brain from outside the head using small electrical fields. As a non-drug option, TMS influences the brain and does not alter the rest of your body's chemistry.

Benefits

Non-invasive and medication free

No surgery, drugs, or needles are involved.

Potential for lasting results

Studies show long-term improvements in many cases.

80% response rate and 50% remission

This is truly a precision and personalized treatment, where we can also ensure that the patient receives a specific dose based on their own brain activity.

Targeted therapy

Stimulates specific brain regions linked to depression.

Convenient treatment

Sessions typically are done in an outpatient setting.

Fewer side effects

Compared to medication, TMS has a milder side effect profile.

Relief in 2-3 weeks

Many individuals treated with TMS report feeling relief of depression symptoms within the first 2-3 weeks of treatment.

Personalized RapidRecovery nTMS Therapy Programs

Typically, patients receive five treatments per week over the course of six weeks. After the one-time setup process, each treatment session ranges between three to thirty-seven minutes. Treatment programs may vary by clinic and are personalized for every patient's needs.

TMS is FDA approved and covered by most major insurances—Medicare, Medicaid, Blue Cross, Cigna, United, Aetna, Med Cost, and TRICARE.
