Questions

TMS therapy, answered

What is TMS therapy?

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive treatment that uses focused magnetic pulses — similar in strength to an MRI — to stimulate areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. It is FDA-cleared for major depressive disorder and OCD in adults.

Does it hurt?

Most people describe a tapping sensation on the scalp during the session. Some experience mild scalp discomfort or headache in the first week, which usually eases as treatment continues. You stay awake and alert throughout.

How long is a course of treatment?

A typical course runs five days a week for several weeks, with each session lasting about 10 to 30 minutes. Your clinician will confirm the schedule that fits your plan of care.

Is TMS covered by insurance?

Most major insurance plans and Medicare cover TMS for adults with depression who meet medical criteria. We verify your specific benefits and explain any out-of-pocket cost before treatment begins.

Will it work for me?

Responses vary from person to person, and no treatment works for everyone. During your consultation a clinician reviews your history and explains the potential benefits and risks so you can make an informed decision.

Can I keep taking my medication?

Many people continue their current medication during TMS. Any changes are made by your prescribing clinician — never stop a medication on your own.
