TMS for Depression After Medication Failure

You could probably name the medications you've tried. The one that made you gain weight. The one that flattened everything. The one that worked for a few months and then stopped.

If you've tried two or more antidepressants without adequate relief, you're not failing at treatment. The treatment has been failing to reach you. Depression that doesn't respond to standard antidepressants has a name — treatment-resistant depression — and treatments were developed specifically for it.

Oral antidepressants work by changing chemical signaling throughout your entire body. TMS works differently — it uses focused magnetic pulses to stimulate a specific area of the brain involved in mood regulation. Nothing enters your body. There are no systemic side effects like weight gain or sexual dysfunction.

It's FDA-cleared, non-invasive, and performed in an outpatient setting. You stay awake and can drive yourself home.

• Standard TMS — 5 days/week for ~6 weeks, FDA-cleared
