TMS Therapy
in Dearborn Heights, MI
At The Place of Hope in Dearborn Heights, MI, we offer Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) Therapy, an advanced treatment for individuals seeking relief from depression. This innovative, non-invasive approach provides a new path forward when traditional methods haven’t yielded desired results. Our team is dedicated to providing personalized care to help you achieve lasting emotional wellness.
What is TMS Therapy?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) Therapy is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive procedure that uses targeted magnetic pulses to stimulate specific areas of the brain. These areas are often underactive in individuals experiencing depression, and TMS helps to re-regulate their activity. Unlike medication, TMS does not circulate throughout the body, minimizing systemic side effects.
What to Expect During TMS Therapy?
Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a thorough assessment to determine if TMS therapy is suitable for your specific needs. We will discuss your medical history, symptoms, and treatment goals to create a personalized plan. This initial step ensures the therapy is tailored for optimal effectiveness.
Treatment Setup
During each session, you will relax in a comfortable chair while a small, electromagnetic coil is positioned gently on your scalp. This coil delivers precise magnetic pulses to the targeted brain regions. The setup is quick and designed for your comfort.
During Sessions
TMS sessions typically last between 19 to 37 minutes, depending on your personalized treatment plan. You will remain awake and alert throughout the process, able to read, listen to music, or engage in conversation. Most patients describe the sensation as a light tapping on the scalp.
After Treatment
Following each TMS session, there is no recovery period or downtime required. You can immediately resume your daily activities, including driving, working, or returning to your regular routine. This allows for seamless integration of treatment into your lifestyle.
