Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation-TMS For Depression
Statements such as – "I’m so empty, I can’t even cry” ... “It’s like hell.” – are just some of the ways sufferers of depression have described their conditions. However, now patients are sharing these: "For the first time in years, I am off all anti-depression medications" ... "My family and friends say it’s great to have ‘me’ back.” Many patients have shared very similar experiences due to Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, or TMS. TMS is a painless, non-invasive treatment that uses electromagnetic waves to deliver small bursts of energy to targeted areas known to be involved in mood regulation.
