Depression Treatment & TMS Therapy 

TMS ( transcranial magnetic stimulation) ad is used to treat depression by stimulating the brain using electromagnetic fields, which are like those produced by an MRI machine. During TMS Therapy, a magnetic field administered in very short pulses to the part of your brain that has been shown through research as being associated with depression.

How does TMS therapy work?

The system uses short pulses of electromagnets or electricity delivered through wires strapped around parts of your head so it can reach deep into the skull where you have high blood flow and stimulate areas underneath that correspond with mood disorders such as anxiety.
