At Complete Healthcare for Women, we recognize women's unique mental health challenges and are committed to providing innovative and effective treatment options. One such groundbreaking treatment is NeuroStar TMS Therapy, a non-invasive, medication-free solution for depression.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy utilizes magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain associated with mood control and depression. NeuroStar is a leading FDA-cleared TMS device renowned for its safety, efficacy, and patient comfort.
TMS NeuroStar therapy targets precise areas of the brain that regulate mood. During a session, a small coil placed gently against the scalp delivers targeted magnetic pulses to activate areas of the brain responsible for depression. This stimulation enhances brain activity and restores proper functioning, often providing significant relief from depressive symptoms.
Non-Invasive: Unlike electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), NeuroStar does not require anesthesia or sedation. It involves no incisions or implants.
Medication-Free: Ideal for patients who experience side effects from antidepressants or find medications ineffective.
Minimal Side Effects: The most common side effects, typically mild, include temporary scalp discomfort or headache.
Clinically Proven: Numerous studies have validated NeuroStar's effectiveness in treating depression, with many patients experiencing long-lasting improvement.
Treatment with NeuroStar TMS involves a series of 36 sessions, typically administered five days per week for approximately seven weeks. Each session lasts about 20 minutes, during which patients remain awake and alert, comfortably seated in a relaxing environment. After the treatment, patients can immediately resume daily activities without restrictions.
NeuroStar TMS therapy is particularly suitable for women experiencing moderate to severe depression who have not achieved satisfactory results from traditional medications or therapy. It's also a beneficial option for those wishing to avoid medication side effects or who have difficulty tolerating antidepressants.
At Complete Healthcare for Women, our providers, including Dr. Richard Lorenzo and Kortney Jones ARNP, are highly experienced and dedicated to comprehensive, personalized care. We understand the complexities of women's mental health and offer innovative therapies like NeuroStar TMS to ensure our patients receive the most advanced, compassionate care possible.
