What is TMS?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a safe outpatient treatment that uses repetitive magnetic pulses to stimulate neural activity in specific parts of the brain adversely affected by mental health problems such as major depression or obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).
All TMS treatments begin with a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation by a certified TMS psychiatrist at ReVive Life Boca and Particle Theory Labs. If an individual is a candidate for this therapy, an initial brain mapping is done to determine the specific part of the brain to be targeted by the therapy.
TMS sessions are short, painless treatments that can be done on a completely outpatient basis. During a session, patients receive a series of rapid magnetic pulses that penetrate deep into the brain. These magnetic pulses stimulate activity in the neural axons, improving brain functions such as mood control and helping the brain return to a normal, healthy level of functionality.
You will be awake and alert during the treatment sessions. The treatment sessions include daily treatments for a period of 6 weeks. Each treatment session lasts approximately 20–30 minutes.
We are a proud provider of Brainsway deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (dTMS) technology. The magnetic pulses in dTMS stimulate a larger portion of the brain, as well as penetrate deeper into the brain, enhancing the overall effect and improving long-term successful outcomes.
