What Is NeuroStar TMS?
Nevada Psychiatric Clinic offers TMS Therapy – TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) Therapy is an FDA-cleared non-invasive medical treatment for patients with major depression who have not benefited from antidepressant medications. TMS is a safe, effective and non-drug treatment for depression
What to Expect
During a NeuroStar Advanced Therapy session, a magnet similar in strength to that used in a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machine is used to stimulate nerve cells in the area of the brain thought to control mood. These magnetic pulses may have a positive effect on the brain’s neurotransmitter levels, making long-term remission possible.
Before Treatment
Simply recline in the comfortable treatment chair and your technician will position a small magnetic coil gently on your head.
During Treatment
NeuroStar sends magnetic pulses to stimulate the brain’s target areas. It’s normal to hear clicking sounds and feel tapping sensations on your head.
After Treatment
NeuroStar Advanced Therapy treatment takes less than 19 minutes depending on your doctor’s recommendation. You can resume your regular activities immediately!
See the Science
TMS Therapy has been proven highly safe and effective in the treatment of depression. TMS Therapy is free of side effects typically experienced with antidepressant medications. The most common side effect associated with treatment is pain or discomfort at or near the treatment area – generally mild to moderate.
