How TMS Therapy Actually Works
Moods and emotions are controlled by a part of the brain that is stimulated during TMS therapy for depression. This therapy does not result in harmful side effects or memory loss, which is different from electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Magnetic pulses are administered through the brain, affecting mood with no adverse side effects.
TMS Therapy & Depression Treatment
A patient sits in a chair while a helmet is gently placed on their head during TMS treatment for depression. Magnetic fields are delivered through an electromagnetic coil to stimulate brain cells that may be ‘asleep’ due to major depression. TMS treatment for depression does not require sedation or general anesthetics, therefore patients are fully conscious during treatment.
