We specialize in evidence-based practices, with a focus on Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy, offering a safe and effective option for individuals seeking relief from depression and other mental health conditions.
What is TMS Therapy?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression. Unlike traditional antidepressant medications, TMS does not require ingesting drugs, making it an appealing option for many patients. At our Cary location, we utilize this advanced technology to provide a targeted treatment approach.
How TMS Therapy Works
TMS therapy involves a series of sessions typically conducted over several weeks. During each session, a TMS device generates a magnetic coil that is placed near the scalp. This coil produces a focused magnetic pulse that gently stimulates specific areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. Patients remain awake and alert throughout the procedure, which is generally well-tolerated and does not require sedation. Our team at MedPsych Integrated - Cary ensures a comfortable and effective treatment experience.
