Transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is an FDA approved noninvasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of major depression and OCD. It is done without using surgery or cutting the skin. The FDA has also approved

TMS for migraines and to help people stop smoking when standard treatments haven’t worked well.

rTMS is a noninvasive form of brain stimulation unlike deep brain stimulation, does not require surgery or implanting electrodes. And, unlike electroconvulsive therapy (ECT),

rTMS doesn’t cause seizures or memory loss. It also doesn’t require the use of anesthesia, which puts people in a sleep-like state.

If you are experiencing depression and medications are not helping or you cannot tolerate the side effects, please make an appointment today
