Depression is a debilitating condition that affects millions of people worldwide. If traditional treatments like medication and therapy have not provided the relief you need, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) at Resiliency Mind+Body Medicine in Newport Beach, CA, might be the solution. TMS is a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain, offering new hope for those struggling with depression.
Depression is a serious mood disorder characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a lack of interest or pleasure in daily activities. It can also cause various physical and emotional problems, significantly impacting one’s ability to function at work and at home. Key symptoms of depression include:
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) targets the brain’s prefrontal cortex, an area known to regulate mood. Depression is often associated with decreased activity in this region. By delivering magnetic pulses, TMS stimulates nerve cells, enhancing brain activity and alleviating depressive symptoms.
At Resiliency Mind+Body Medicine, your journey to overcoming depression with TMS begins with a comprehensive evaluation. This initial consultation allows our team to assess your medical history, current symptoms, and treatment goals to determine if TMS suits you.
Once TMS is deemed suitable, we develop a personalized treatment plan. Each TMS session lasts about 20-40 minutes and is conducted five days a week for several weeks. You will sit comfortably during the session while the TMS device delivers magnetic pulses to the targeted brain regions. There is no need for anesthesia, and you can return to your normal activities immediately after each session.
