What is TMS Therapy?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain. It is primarily used as a treatment for major depressive disorder (MDD) and, increasingly, for treatment-resistant depression and anxiety disorders. Unlike some other brain stimulation therapies, TMS does not require surgery or anesthesia, making it a safer and more comfortable option for many patients seeking relief from debilitating symptoms.
How Does TMS Work?
TMS works by targeting specific areas of the brain associated with mood regulation. Using focused pulses of magnetic energy, the TMS device induces small electrical currents in these regions, helping to restore balanced brain activity. This targeted stimulation can lead to improvements in symptoms over time, without the need for medication. Our Cary-based practitioners are highly trained in administering TMS therapy effectively and comfortably.
