What is TMS?

TMS is transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy (TMS), a non-drug treatment for major depression. TMS uses magnetic pulses, similar in strength to an MRI, to reignite dormant synapses in the brain and help your brain function the way it was meant to.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does NeuroStar TMS hurt?
During the session, you will feel a tapping sensation on your head. Each treatment session lasts between 19 and 40 minutes.1 Some NeuroStar patients experience mild to moderate pain or discomfort at or near the treatment site during the first week of treatment. This is usually temporary and subsides in subsequent treatments.3,9 Click here for a full list of possible side effects associated with NeuroStar.
Is NeuroStar TMS like “shock” therapy?
NeuroStar is not ECT (or electroconvulsive ”shock” therapy). NeuroStar employs TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation), which uses magnetic waves similar in strength to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). NeuroStar TMS is precise and focused, targeting treatment at the source of the depression: your brain. With Neurostar TMS you are fully awake and alert during treatment and may resume daily activities immediately afterwards. ECT, on the other hand, applies direct electrical current through the skull and into the brain rather than magnetic waves. Because ECT uses direct electrical current, it must be done under anesthesia. For more details, ask your doctor about the difference between TMS and ECT.
Does insurance cover NeuroStar TMS therapy?
NeuroStar TMS Therapy is covered by most insurance plans, including Medicare and Tricare, usually after medication options have proven ineffective in your major depression treatment. Learn more about insurance coverage options and see if your insurance provider covers NeuroStar treatment.
