Rediscover Hope with Deep TMS Therapy
Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate brain activity. A clinician can assess whether it is appropriate for you.

What is Deep TMS?
Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate brain areas responsible for mood regulation. It is a non-pharmacological option for individuals who have not responded adequately to antidepressant medications or psychotherapy. Health Canada–licensed for Major Depressive Disorder, OCD, and anxious depression (also FDA-cleared in the U.S. for these indications). PTSD and addiction are supported by emerging research.
Types of Neuromodulation we offer at BrainStim:
Repetitive TMS (rTMS)
Uses repeated magnetic pulses to stimulate brain areas involved in mood regulation, according to a clinician-selected protocol. Used for depression, anxiety, and OCD.
Deep TMS (dTMS)
A form of TMS that uses a coil designed to reach deeper brain regions, according to a clinician-selected protocol. Used for severe depression and OCD; PTSD is supported by emerging research.
Neuro Feedback
A non-invasive therapy that supports brain function training, often used for memory issues and cognitive decline.
Transcranial direct current stimulation(tDCS)
Uses a mild electrical current, delivered through electrodes on the scalp, to stimulate brain activity, for patients with neurological conditions.
How does Deep TMS work?
Magnetic Pulses Target the Brain
A coil is placed on the scalp, delivering magnetic pulses to stimulate specific brain areas linked to mood regulation.
Pulses Follow a Clinician-Selected Protocol
A coil delivers magnetic pulses according to a clinician-selected protocol.
Treatment Plan and Response.
The treatment plan and expected response vary by indication and individual factors.
Conditions Deep TMS can help with:
Treatment suitability and evidence vary by diagnosis. A clinician will review approved indications, available evidence and individual factors.
Depression
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Health Canada–licensed indication.
Anxiety
Targets the neural circuits involved in anxiety, reducing symptoms of chronic worry, panic, and generalized anxiety disorder.
PTSD
Trauma-related stress and emotional dysregulation. Supported by emerging research.
OCD
Obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. Health Canada–licensed indication.
Addiction
Behavioral patterns linked to substance use. Supported by emerging research.
