Accelerate Your Recovery: Discover How TMS Therapy Unlocks Brain Pathways For Rapid Mental Health Improvement
Embrace the transformative power of your brain with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy.
By delivering electromagnetic pulses to specific areas within the brain, TMS therapy stimulates increased neural activity, fostering the development of new pathways and connections. This method offers a path to restart your life, making it a valuable tool for those suffering from depression, anxiety, OCD, and PTSD.
The Brainsway Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (dTMS) represents a significant advancement in treating depression and anxiety, offering deeper and wider brain stimulation compared to traditional rTMS. Its unique H-Coil design enables more intense magnetic pulses to target deeper neural structures effectively.
dTMS, approved by the FDA, uses magnetic fields to activate neural networks in the brain to improve symptoms of mental health and addiction conditions, including:
TMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate and re-function your brain. No daily medications or their bothersome long-term side effects.
Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) involves a series of short magnetic pulses directed to the brain to stimulate nerve cells. The magnetic pulses stimulate area neurons and change the functioning of the brain circuits involved.
TMS is an evidence-based treatment that is Health Canada and FDA approved for treatment-resistant depression and other mood disorders.
The majority of our patients see a 50-60% decrease in symptoms and have little to no downtime post-treatment, helping them to continue on with their daily lives.
Sessions are quick and scheduled around your daily life to help ease your anxieties.
The brain, akin to a complex electrical circuit, can experience disruptions leading to disorders such as depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS), particularly with a Magventure TMS machine, provides a precise magnetic stimulation to specific brain areas. This gentle intervention aims to adjust and improve the brain’s electrical activity, akin to a strategic nudge towards better functioning and mood enhancement. Employing the Magventure TMS machine for rTMS treatment offers a targeted approach to recalibrating brain circuitry, addressing conditions like depression and PTSD effectively.

Our treatments include TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation), Psychotherapies (CBT, CPT, EMDR, ACT etc.), Ketamine, Nutrition, Exercise and Stress management.
TMS therapy, or Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate specific areas of the brain. It is primarily used to treat mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, and certain neurological disorders.
TMS therapy works by generating magnetic pulses that pass through the scalp and skull to stimulate targeted regions of the brain. These pulses can modulate neuronal activity, leading to therapeutic effects on mood and behaviour.
TMS therapy is commonly used to treat major depressive disorder (MDD) in individuals who have not responded adequately to antidepressant medications. It is also effective for other mood disorders such as anxiety, PTSD, OCD, and certain neurological conditions like Parkinson’s disease and chronic pain syndromes.
Yes, TMS therapy is considered safe for most individuals. It is non-invasive and does not require sedation or anesthesia. While some patients may experience mild side effects such as scalp discomfort or headaches during or after treatment, serious adverse effects are rare.
A typical TMS therapy session lasts approximately 20 to 30 minutes. Treatment sessions are usually administered daily over the course of several weeks, with the total number of sessions varying depending on the individual’s response to treatment.
During a TMS therapy session, you will be seated comfortably in a chair while a specialized device delivers repetitive magnetic pulses to targeted areas of your brain. You may experience a tapping or clicking sensation on your scalp during the procedure, but it is generally well tolerated.
Coverage for TMS therapy varies depending on your insurance provider and policy. Some insurance plans may cover all or part of the cost of treatment, while others may require prior authorization or have specific eligibility criteria. It is advisable to contact your insurance company to inquire about coverage for TMS therapy.
In general, there are no specific lifestyle changes required during TMS therapy. However, it is important to follow any instructions provided by your healthcare provider and to attend all scheduled treatment sessions to maximize the benefits of therapy.
The therapeutic effects of TMS therapy can vary from person to person. Some individuals may experience symptom improvement that lasts for several months or longer, while others may require periodic maintenance sessions to sustain the benefits of treatment.
Yes, TMS therapy can be used in combination with other treatments such as medication or psychotherapy. Your healthcare provider will assess your individual needs and develop a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to your specific condition and circumstances.
While TMS therapy is generally safe and well tolerated, it may not be suitable for everyone. Individuals with certain medical conditions or implanted metallic devices in the head or neck region may not be eligible for TMS therapy. It is important to undergo a thorough evaluation by a qualified healthcare provider to determine if TMS therapy is right for you.
While TMS therapy is considered safe, some individuals may experience mild side effects such as scalp discomfort, headache, or transient hearing changes during or after treatment. Serious adverse effects such as seizures are rare but can occur, particularly in individuals with a history of seizure disorders or certain neurological conditions.
If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, or certain neurological disorders and have not responded adequately to other treatments, TMS therapy may be an option worth considering. It is important to consult with a qualified healthcare provider who can evaluate your condition and discuss the potential benefits and risks of TMS therapy.
BrainsWay’s unique coil design enables deeper and broader stimulation than traditional, figure-8 TMS coils, resulting in greater activation of neurons, less likelihood of targeting errors, both of which may increase efficacy.
