Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment for depression.
It uses magnetic pulses to stimulate a mood center of the brain, increasing activity in this area and providing lasting relief.
Remarkably, it has been reliably shown to help people with treatment-resistant depression- those that have not found success from traditional therapies such as antidepressants.
Here at South Shore NeuroPsychiatric Center, we have been using TMS to help our patients combat depression since 2010.
