TMS, an innovative, non-invasive treatment for depression is now being offered closer to home for your readers at WellSpan Health in Chambersburg. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a drug-free therapy that uses magnetic fields to stimulate underactive areas of the brain linked to depression.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In just under 19 minutes a day over the first few weeks of the program, patients may begin to feel a noticeable shift in their mood and mental clarity. After four to six weeks, many patients experience significant improvement or complete resolution of symptoms.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI would go so far as to call it life-changing,\u201d said Brandon Peach of Mt. Gretna, PA, who began noticing improvements halfway through his treatment.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
During each session, patients simply sit in a chair while the TMS device delivers targeted magnetic pulses requiring no medication, no sedation and no downtime.\u00a0<\/p>\n
TMS therapy is FDA approved and administered by licensed and certified professionals in an outpatient setting. It\u2019s been safely administered across more than 3.5 million treatment sessions worldwide to date.\u00a0<\/p>\n
