Magstim® TMS Therapy involves a series of repetitive, brief, and highly focused magnetic pulses, designed to stimulate brain cells. TMS is typically prescribed to adult patients when antidepressants have failed, or the side effects are intolerable.
In comparison to antidepressants, Magstim® TMS Therapy is a non-invasive outpatient procedure with few known side effects. Magstim® TMS Therapy systems offer versatility with a range of treatment protocols including a 3-minute treatment option.
If San Antonio Family Psychiatry determines that TMS Treatment is a good option for you, we will talk to you about the treatment schedule and what we recommend. TMS takes multiple treatments, but we will provide the most accurate recommendation specific to your case.
