TMS Therapy

What is TMS Therapy?

TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) Therapy is a non-invasive, drug-free treatment that uses magnetic fields to stimulate areas of the brain associated with mood regulation. This FDA-approved therapy is an effective solution for individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health conditions who have not found success with traditional medications.

At ALTMED, we offer TMS Therapy in a calm, clinical setting, empowering you to achieve lasting improvements in your mental health and well-being.

How Does TMS Therapy Work?

TMS uses a magnetic coil to deliver targeted pulses to underactive areas of the brain responsible for mood and emotional regulation. This stimulation helps restore proper neural activity and promotes long-term mental wellness.

Key Benefits of TMS Therapy:

  • Completely non-invasive and painless.
  • No medications required.
  • Proven effective for treatment-resistant conditions.
  • No downtime — return to your daily activities right after treatment.

Who Can Benefit from TMS Therapy?

TMS Therapy is ideal for individuals who:

  • Have not responded to traditional antidepressants or psychotherapy.
  • Prefer a drug-free, non-invasive treatment option.
  • Struggle with conditions such as:
    • Treatment-Resistant Depression
    • Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
    • Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
    • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

If you’re looking for a safe, effective alternative to medications, TMS Therapy could be the right choice for you.

What to Expect During TMS Therapy

At ALTMED, we make your comfort and care our top priority. Here’s how a typical TMS session works:

  • Initial Consultation: We evaluate your condition and medical history to determine if TMS Therapy is the best option for you.
  • Customized Treatment Plan: Our team designs a plan tailored to your specific needs.
  • Treatment Sessions: During each session, a magnetic coil is gently placed near your scalp. You’ll feel a tapping sensation as magnetic pulses are delivered to the targeted brain region. Sessions typically last 20–40 minutes.
  • Ongoing Support: TMS is typically administered 5 days a week over 4–6 weeks, with follow-up sessions as needed.

Most patients experience little to no side effects and can resume normal activities immediately after their session.
