It's not you,
it's the brain.
Did you know?
Depression is caused by a lack of sufficient activity in the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, essentially the front left part of your brain. When this area is working properly, the entire brain lights up, creating an improved mood, working memory, and selective attention.
Improved Mood
TMS for Depression activates your mood center and the stimulation of this area over time improves this area.
Better Focus & Memory
This area of the brain is in charge of functions such as your focus, working memory, and selective attention.
Long-term Improvement
TMS has been proven to be incredibly durable, with results lasting usually 1-2 years.
Here's how it works
The TMS process is designed to make long-lasting changes in your brain and the doctor and staff are there to walk you through every step of the way.
See a Psychiatrist
A psychiatrist will determine if TMS is right for you and then the staff will send an authorization to insurance for approval.
Start Treatment
Your doctor will set everything up on your first visit. Sessions are no more than 30-minutes and you can drive to and from appointments.
Stay Consistent
Treatments are Monday-Friday for 6 weeks, followed by a 3-week taper. Patients usually feel results after about 20 sessions.
Who is TMS for?
You've tried medications.
Most insurance companies are looking for about 2 or more antidepressants that didn't work because of either side-effects or a lack-of-effect.
You've tried therapy.
Insurance companies also approve patients who have tried at least 6-8 weeks of therapy but still suffer from depression.
You still have depression.
If you've tried medication and therapy and you still have depression which psychiatrists call "treatment-resistant" and TMS is the best option.
Frequently Asked Questions
These are the most common questions about TMS
What are the side effects?
Most TMS patients experience minimal to no side effects, but some do report mild headaches or tingling sensations in the jaw, face, or scalp. These side effects generally subside within a couple of weeks and most patients find them mild and tolerable enough to complete their treatment without interruption.
Does my insurance cover it?
TMS for depression is covered by Medicare, Tricare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, CIGNA, Anthem, United Healthcare, Baylor Scott & White, and pretty much every private insurance plan. TMS for OCD is currently covered by BCBS and CIGNA. TMS is not covered by most medicaid plans.
How much does insurance cover?
This depends on your benefits which our staff is happy to do before you schedule your first visit. They typically cover 80-100% of the total cost of treatment.
Why are there so many sessions?
Because TMS uses gentle magnetic pulses to stimulate the brain, it is not a one-and-done procedure. It requires regular stimulation on a consistent basis to encourage the brain to start incorporating these changes on their own. Studies show that the patients who don't improve in the first 4 weeks have a 63% remission rate if they continue treatment.
Is TMS just for depression?
TMS is FDA-approved to treat depression, anxious depression, OCD, & smoking addiction. Insurance typically only approves TMS for depression and OCD currently.
