TMS for Depression
A comfortable and medication-free option with long-term effects
How do we help with depression and OCD?
Sessions are held at least twice per week and antidepressant effects may be noticed with the first 5 sessions. Up to 20 – 30 sessions are usually needed to consolidate the antidepressant effects. A full course of treatment can be completed within 1 -2 months. This makes TMS a fast-working treatment program for patients looking for an alternative for medications. A neuroCare, TMS sessions are booked as one hour appointments and may also include Psychotherapy with a dedicated mental health professional.
TMS, combined with psychotherapy, is recommended for people who have not gained any results from medication to treat their depression. Studies show that after an average of 20 TMS sessions, depressive symptoms decreased for the long-term in 66% of patients.

Advantages of Outpatient TMS for Depression
Safe
TMS Therapy is focused on the areas of the brain that control mood so it does not negatively affect thinking and memory functions, or any other normal brain functions.
Comfortable
During TMS Therapy, there is no need for sedation or anesthesia; patients are awake, alert and are able to resume normal activities after a treatment session. We administer TMS in a convenient outpatient setting, so there is no hospitalisation needed.
No side effects
TMS is 100% free of medication side effects. Unlike traditional antidepressant medications, TMS Therapy does not cause weight gain, sexual dysfunction, nausea, fatigue or negative cognitive effects.
Efficient
An average of 20 sessions is typically needed, with sessions held at least twice per week. After a course of TMS Therapy, most patients enjoy long-lasting benefits.
Natural
TMS Therapy uses magnetic energy to stimulate brain cells which helps them to naturally release needed chemicals necessary for proper mood regulation.
Scientifically Proven
We only apply protocols which have shown the latest clinical efficacy. By combining TMS with Psychotherapy, studies show this is effective in 66% of the population who suffer Depression.
