LEARN ABOUT TMS THERAPY
& HOW IT WORKS

TMS offers remission from depression, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), anxiety, as well as other psychiatric and certain neurological conditions.

The term transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can certainly sound intimidating. However, TMS therapy is a simple, in-office therapy that is non-invasive, non-sedative, and doesn't require any medication. In fact, TMS therapy is an FDA-approved treatment for depression, anxiety, and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), and is considered to be safe and very effective. While used 'off label' to treat a number of other conditions, TMS is covered by nearly all insurances for the treatment of depression in adult patients who have tried medications and psychotherapy with no relief.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a groundbreaking, non-invasive depression treatment that uses a magnet to precisely target specific brain regions. This FDA-approved therapy delivers a train of magnetic impulses, stimulating neurons in areas linked to mood regulation.



For individuals battling treatment-resistant depression, the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC)—located just above the left eyebrow—often shows reduced activity. Through TMS therapy, we can restore normal neuron function in this region, significantly improving mental health and emotional well-being.


TMS therapy is perfect for those who may not be getting results from traditional depression or anxiety medications. If you have tried a variety of medications to treat your mental health disorders with no luck, TMS may be the perfect fit for you. Depression medications that are prescribed also often have averse side effects where TMS has little to no side effects in its treatment of depression and anxiety.


Many people have severe side effects that far outweigh the benefit of taking the medication. Common side effects for depression medications include drowsiness, apathy, upset stomach, headaches, blurred vision, and other side effects. The only common side effect with TMS is a mild discomfort or headache in the area where the TMS machine was utilized on the head; however, this quickly goes away in almost all patients.


We would love for you to come in to see if TMS may be the perfect fit for you in treating depression, anxiety, or mental health disorders.

WILL INSURANCE HELP PAY FOR TMS THERAPY?

Most major insurance plans cover TMS for the treatment of moderate to severe major depressive disorder when medications and psychotherapy have not proven to be helpful. While TMS therapy is FDA-approved for obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), it is not yet covered by all insurance plans.

Like medications, TMS therapy is also frequently used off-label, which means that doctors often prescribe TMS for indications that are not yet FDA-approved. When treated for a condition other than depression or OCD, TMS therapy may not be covered by insurance. Contact Sound Mind TMS today and we can help determine whether or not your medical insurance will cover some or all of your TMS therapy treatment.
