What is TMS Therapy?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive procedure used primarily to treat Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) in adults. Unlike traditional antidepressant medications, TMS does not require ingesting pills. Instead, it uses a specialized device to deliver targeted magnetic pulses to specific areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. These pulses gently stimulate nerve cells, helping to restore healthy brain activity patterns associated with depression.
How Does TMS Work at MedPsych Integrated - Cary?
At our Cary location, our experienced team will first conduct a thorough evaluation to determine if TMS is an appropriate treatment option for you. If recommended, the TMS procedure is typically performed in our office on an outpatient basis. Patients remain awake and alert throughout the session, which usually lasts between 25 to 40 minutes. A comfortable, gentle tapping sensation may be felt on the scalp during the treatment. Most patients find TMS sessions comfortable and well-tolerated.
Benefits of Choosing TMS at MedPsych Integrated - Cary
Choosing TMS therapy at MedPsych Integrated - Cary offers several advantages. It is a safe, effective, and non-invasive alternative or complement to medication for individuals struggling with treatment-resistant depression. The targeted nature of TMS allows for precise stimulation of brain regions crucial for mood control. Furthermore, TMS has a lower risk of side effects compared to many medications, and the stimulation parameters can be adjusted throughout treatment to optimize comfort and effectiveness. We believe in a collaborative approach, working closely with you to tailor the TMS protocol to your specific needs.
