Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, or TMS, is a non-invasive treatment option that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate areas of the brain associated with mood regulation and neurological function. It’s an innovative therapy primarily used for conditions like depression, chronic pain, OCD, cognitive impairment, and more.
TMS has been proven effective for those who may not have responded well to traditional treatments. This gentle, outpatient therapy allows patients to return to normal activities immediately after each session, providing a convenient and effective path toward improved mental health and cognitive function.

Frequently Asked Questions
Please reach us at contact@piedmontneurosciencecenter.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
Yes, TMS is FDA-approved for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and other conditions. Its approval underscores its safety and effectiveness as a medical treatment.
Unlike medications, TMS is a non-systemic therapy, meaning it does not circulate through the entire body. This minimizes the risk of widespread side effects, making it an excellent option for individuals who cannot tolerate medications or who experience limited benefit from them.
Yes, TMS treatment protocols can be tailored to each patient's needs. Providers adjust parameters like magnetic pulse intensity and target brain regions to ensure the most effective and personalized care.
TMS is well-tolerated with minimal side effects. Commonly reported effects include mild scalp discomfort or a headache, which usually subside quickly.
TMS stimulates targeted areas of the brain associated with mood and neurological functions. It also promotes neuroplasticity, the brain's ability to form and reorganize neural connections, leading to long-lasting improvements.
TMS is particularly beneficial for individuals who have not responded well to traditional treatments such as medications or psychotherapy. It is also an effective alternative for those seeking a non-invasive option.
Yes, TMS is supported by extensive clinical research, demonstrating its effectiveness and safety in treating a variety of neurological and psychiatric conditions.
