Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) has received FDA approval for addressing major depressive disorder (MDD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), migraines, and nicotine addiction. Notably, TMS therapy is FDA approved for patients who haven’t found relief through conventional treatments, offering a promising alternative for those with treatment-resistant conditions.
TMS is safe and well-tolerated by most patients. Importantly, TMS safety is underscored by its non-invasive nature—it doesn’t require anesthesia or surgical procedures, and it doesn’t induce seizures. This makes it a viable option for individuals seeking effective treatment without the systemic side effects associated with medications.
Before TMS treatment begins, you’ll be asked to remove any metal items such as hair clips, hearing aids, or facial piercings. Sessions usually last about 20 to 30 minutes, during which you may feel a tapping sensation on your scalp beneath the coil.
Some patients may experience mild discomfort at the stimulation site or a slight headache during the first few sessions. These symptoms are temporary and typically resolve within the first week of daily treatment.
