Typically, TMS treatment involves focused stimulation just below this network and consists of about 36 sessions.

Early intervention is crucial to prevent the development of avoidance behaviors and to support overall mental health.

TMS therapy can be beneficial for many individuals, particularly those who have not found relief with traditional treatments such as medication or who experience undesirable side effects. It’s essential to discuss your medical history and treatment options with a qualified psychiatrist to determine if TMS is right for you.

TMS is also safer and typically has fewer side effects than medication, allowing individuals to resume their daily activities immediately after treatment.
