Welcome to the TMS Institute of Ohio in Sandusky, Ohio. We provide patients in Northern Ohio and the surrounding area with the latest in depression treatments. We are pleased to be able to offer Neurostar® Advanced Therapy to our patients. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy is one of the most technologically advanced depression treatments available. This non-invasive, outpatient therapy is FDA cleared and has helped thousands of depression patients who have not received adequate results from antidepressants.
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) uses a targeted pulsed magnetic field, similar to what is used in an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) machine. While the patient is awake and alert, NeuroStar Advanced Therapy stimulates areas of the brain that are underactive in depression.
Non invasive and non systemic. The only side effect is the possible minor irritation of the scalp.
A typical treatment course consists of 5 treatments per week over a
4-6 week period.
Each treatments typically lasts between 19-37 minutes. The variation depends on your diagnosis.
You will be fully awake and alert. You can read or watch TV and return to work after your treatment with no restrictions.
