Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy (TMS) is an innovative, FDA-approved, non-invasive treatment designed to stimulate specific areas of the brain using magnetic fields. TMS is primarily used when traditional depression treatments, such as medication and talk therapy, haven’t provided sufficient relief. This therapy works by delivering repetitive magnetic pulses to the brain’s prefrontal cortex, the area responsible for mood regulation.
Unlike other treatments, TMS doesn’t require surgery or anesthesia and has minimal side effects, making it an appealing option for many patients. Learn more about non-invasive depression treatments here.
TMS Therapy for depression targets the prefrontal cortex, an area of the brain linked to mood regulation. By stimulating these neural pathways, TMS can improve symptoms of major depressive disorder (MDD) without the side effects commonly associated with medication.
Research has shown that TMS can significantly reduce depression symptoms in individuals who haven’t responded to traditional treatments. Read about clinical studies supporting TMS effectiveness.

Each TMS session lasts around 20-40 minutes, depending on your specific treatment plan. During the session, a magnetic coil is placed against your scalp, delivering targeted pulses to stimulate brain activity. The procedure is painless, and patients can resume normal activities immediately after.
Most side effects are temporary and resolve shortly after the session.
If you’re struggling with depression and haven’t found relief from traditional treatments, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy might be the right option. TMS is especially effective for individuals diagnosed with treatment-resistant depression.
