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.

TMS uses a magnet to target a very specific area of the brain. The magnet delivers a train of magnetic impulses that stimulates the neurons in the targeted area. For instance, for those suffering from depression, the neurons located in an area of the brain called the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (just above the left eyebrow) typically do not function optimally. When stimulated during a course of TMS therapy treatment, we can restore this area's normal functioning.

WHEN YOU SUFFER FROM DEPRESSION OR A NEUROLOGICAL DISORDER, YOU ARE NOT ALONE. YOU CAN GET HELP.

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.
