What is TMS
Report
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is FDA approved [since 2008] for adults who suffer from major depressive disorder and who have failed to find relief from anti-depressants. It is an office procedure where magnetic pulses target the prefrontal cortex of the brain. Most patients require 20 to 30 treatments to emerge from depression, over 4 to 6 weeks.
Conditions Tms Treats
Report
Though TMS is only FDA approved for the treatment of major depressive disorder, we have also obtained IRB approval to treat Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and Parkinson's Disease. Dr McMullen will meet with you and decide if TMS or Deep TMS may be right for you. Then you will be referred to one of our TMS specialists that are trained in conducting TMS therapy.
