TMS of Tampa specializes in offering TMS therapy for depression in a conducive and tranquil environment. Our TMS therapy for depression helps stimulate a part of the brain that deals with emotions and moods. This therapy procedure doesn’t require anesthesia or hospitalization and does not have any harmful side effects or cause memory loss. We are happy to serve patients throughout Tampa, Florida, and surrounding cities.

TMS Therapy Procedures 

The TMS therapy for depression entails the patient sitting in a chair and placing a helmet on their head. An electromagnetic coil integrated with the helmet effortlessly delivers brief magnetic fields to trigger nerve cells in the brain that may be inactive due to a major depressive disorder. Patients are always active during the treatment procedure. 

During the treatment procedure, patients will hear some clicking sounds, which can be described as a gentle tapping on their heads. Another fantastic thing is that a medical professional is always available to monitor the procedure, and the patient may decide to discontinue the treatment procedure at any time. Patients can come over to our office in Tampa and leave on the same day.

What To Expect

A TMS professional technician performs the therapy. Note that you’re expected to remove items that are sensitive to magnetic materials like jewelry. 

  • Wear an earplug to reduce the clicking sounds of magnetic impulses
  • The technician will measure your head to determine the best position to place the magnetic coil
  • You will hear the clicking sounds as a result of the discharge of magnetic impulses
  • The treatment lasts for at most 60 minutes
