The science behind TMS

How TMS works and why it helps when medications haven’t

Depression can affect how certain areas of the brain control mood. When those areas become less active, it can make it difficult to feel better, even with medication.

TMS works differently. It uses gentle magnetic pulses to activate these areas and help restore normal brain function.

Because it targets the brain directly, TMS can help when medications haven’t been effective.

TMS is FDA-cleared for depression, including anxious depression, which is why many people also notice improvement in anxiety symptoms.

Your treatment timeline

Most patients begin with an initial treatment course followed by tapering or maintenance sessions based on their progress and symptoms.

Initial consultation

Clinical evaluation to determine if TMS is the right fit based on your symptoms and treatment history.

Acute treatment phase (Weeks 1–6)

Typically 5 sessions per week. Many patients begin noticing improvement within the first few weeks.

Tapering phase (Weeks 7–8)

Sessions gradually decrease as your clinical team monitors progress and adjusts treatment based on your response.

Maintenance & booster sessions (As needed)

Occasional sessions may help maintain progress and support long-term relief.

How we compare

TMS vs antidepressant medications for depression

Traditional antidepressants are often one of the first treatment options for mood symptoms, anxiety, and depression. When symptoms do not improve enough, TMS may offer another path forward with in-person medical supervision, structured monitoring, and integrated clinical support.

Is TMS right for you?

Who is a good candidate for TMS Therapy treatment

TMS may be the right fit if any of the following describe you or your loved one:

Symptoms haven’t improved with other medications

You’ve tried antidepressants or other mental health medications and haven’t found lasting relief.

You don’t want to keep switching or adding medications

The cycle of trying new medications, therapy, or treatment plans with limited results can feel draining.

You’ve experienced side effects from medications

Weight gain, fatigue, emotional numbness, or other side effects can make staying on medications difficult.

You’re looking for a non-medication treatment option

If waiting weeks for another medication to work doesn’t feel sustainable, TMS offers a non-invasive treatment approach without adding another medication.

You’re dealing with depression along with anxiety or anxious depression

TMS is not an experimental therapy. It is an FDA-approved treatment offered with clinical supervision and medical monitoring.

If nothing has worked so far — it doesn't mean nothing will.

TMS offers a different approach, one that targets a different part of the brain than everything you’ve already tried.
