Why Choose TMS Therapy?
TMS therapy offers a non-invasive, FDA-cleared treatment option for those who haven't found relief from medication alone.
Unlike ECT (electroconvulsive therapy), TMS requires no anesthesia, has minimal side effects, and allows patients to drive themselves to and from treatment.
Clinical studies show remission rates of 50-60% for treatment-resistant depression.
What to Expect at a San Francisco TMS Clinic
Your TMS journey typically begins with a consultation where a psychiatrist evaluates your medical history and treatment goals.
If you're a candidate, you'll undergo a brain mapping session to identify the optimal treatment location.
Treatment involves 36 sessions over 6-9 weeks, with each session lasting 19-37 minutes depending on the protocol.
