TMS for Firefighters
Firefighters are exposed to trauma at rates few other professions match. If medication hasn't helped, there are other treatment options.
What firefighters experience
Firefighting means running toward danger that others run from. Over a career, the cumulative weight of critical incidents, loss, and sustained danger takes a toll. Depression, anxiety, and PTSD are more common in firefighters than in the general population — and sleep disruption, which is nearly universal in shift work, makes everything harder.
If you've tried antidepressants without adequate relief, there are treatments that work through different mechanisms.
Treatment options
- TMS — FDA-cleared, non-invasive magnetic stimulation for depression
- SAINT accelerated TMS — five-day protocol, FDA-cleared
- SPRAVATO (esketamine) — FDA-approved for treatment-resistant depression
- Prism for PTSD — EEG neurofeedback for PTSD symptoms
- IV ketamine and KAP — for depression, anxiety, and PTSD
- Trauma-informed psychotherapy
