TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation)

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, also known as TMS, offers an alternative for patients with depression that is not responding to other treatments.

TMS uses a magnetic field to create small electrical currents in specific regions of the brain thought to be deficient in depression. Improving the neuronal connections is those areas of the brain through repeated electrical stimulation can help minimize symptoms of depression.

TMS has also been used as treatment for OCD, PTSD, Anxiety, Substance Use Disorders and Chronic Pain.

Avance Psychiatry has a TMS team directed by a board-certified psychiatrist who specializes in TMS treatment and can help you decide if TMS is right for you.
