Procedure For Neurostar TMS Therapy

Our qualified TMS specialists start by finding out the best way to administer treatment effectively. This treatment usually takes place in our doctor’s office. Before our experts begin treatment, they position a small magnetic coil on your head. When the treatment starts, you will feel a tapping sensation on your head and hear a clicking sound. 

During this Neurostar treatment period, you lay comfortably on a treatment chair and remain alert and awake the whole time. You might be allowed to read, play games, watch TV, and even chat with our doctor during your session. Since the procedure does not involve the use of sedatives, it does not affect your alertness. 

Each session lasts between 20 and 40 minutes, and you can resume daily activities such as driving and work after your session is over. Neurostar treatments are usually administered within a period of 4 to 6 weeks. After 2 to 3 weeks of being treated, you might start to observe improvements in your mood, experience fewer days of depression, discover that you won’t communicate with your family and friends more regularly.
