How We Can Help You Find Relief
What to Expect
During a typical TMS session, you’ll sit in a reclining chair or an upright seat. You’ll be awake and alert, as no anesthesia or sedation is used. A TMS technician will position a magnetic coil over your scalp, typically over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (linked to mood regulation). Each session typically lasts 30 minutes. Sessions can be 5 days per week for up to 4-6 weeks. 50-60% of patients with depression respond to TMS. Response time can vary, but patients usually feel changes within 2-4 weeks into treatment. Symptom relief can last from months to years, though some patients require maintenance/booster treatments intermittently.
