Depression is a rampant medical illness that affects the behavior of humans negatively. The way we think, act, feel, react to things can be greatly affected by depression. Even though it is treatable, sometimes people feel they have reached a point where nothing can be done anymore, which is understandable but the good news is that TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) therapy is capable of handling any level of depression efficiently.
What is TMS Therapy?
TMS therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses electromagnetic pulses to stimulate nerve cells, which may improve symptoms of neurological or mental health disorders, basically used to treat depression. It does not require hospitalization or anesthesia and the procedure for TMS therapy is approved by the FDA.
Procedure for TMS Therapy for Depression at Advanced TMS Center
One of the most common things in a room where TMS therapy for depression is being given is the question people ask, which is “how it feels like.” Well, people say it is a clicking sound with a tender tapping on their heads.
During the therapy session, you will be asked to sit on a chair and a helmet will be gently placed on your head. On the helmet is an electromagnetic coil that generates magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain that may be weak or asleep due to major depressive disorder.
Through the entire therapy process, a medical expert will be available to monitor everything and ensure that the therapy goes well. There is a considerable high success rate in TMS therapy for depression. And the good thing about the therapy is that you can drive in to receive it anytime.
