If antidepressant medication has not relieved your symptoms of depression, or if it has caused intolerable side effects, there is a new, innovative treatment available at the Center for Comprehensive Behavioral Health.
Transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy, or TMS, uses magnetic pulses to alter the chemistry in the part of the brain thought to control mood.
You recline in a special chair. A coil, located inside a hand-sized plastic case, is placed on the left front side of your head. The coil delivers magnetic pulses to your brain’s prefrontal cortex. These pulses trigger your brain cells to release serotonin, dopamine and other neurotransmitters into your brain’s cerebral cortex. These chemical stimulations may help boost your mood.
