TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) is an entirely new approach to depression. It uses a series of magnetic pulses to enhance and restore brain function. It does this by activating brain cells and strengthening their connections with one another; similar to how exercise strengthens muscles. 

Once three or more medications have failed, TMS is 2-3 more likely to help than medications. 

TMS reduces symptoms by at least half in 50- 60% of patients, and about half of those become depression free! 

TMS is not a medication, so there are no side effects throughout the body. 

TMS is not ECT, so it takes place in our office with no anesthesia and no risk of memory loss.
