Modern TMS

What is TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation)?

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is an FDA-approved, non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain and improve symptoms of depression. Unlike electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), TMS does not require anesthesia, does not cause seizures, and does not affect memory.

How TMS works?

TMS therapy targets areas of the brain responsible for mood regulation. During each session:

  • Poor time management and missed deadlines

  • Trouble maintaining attention in meetings or lectures

  • Difficulty staying organized and completing projects

By restoring normal brain function, TMS helps improve mood, focus, and overall well-being.
