depression treatment

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is an FDA-cleared treatment that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression. Its safety and effectiveness have been well documented for many years and is recommended by the American Psychiatric Association for the treatment of major depressive disorder. TMS is one of the only non-invasive, non-pharmaceutical treatments for depression. TMS uses magnets to create a pulsed magnetic field, the same technology used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
