Evidence-based therapies designed to restore optimal brain health

At NeuroEdge TMS, we specialize in TMS therapy for depression and related mood disorders. Alongside our affiliated behavioral health treatment partners, we’re committed to offering some of the most innovative techniques in modern mental healthcare.

TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) uses gentle magnetic pulses to activate areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. For many people with treatment-resistant depression, TMS provides meaningful symptom relief when medications alone haven’t worked.

What is TMS Therapy?

TMS therapy (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) is a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic fields to stimulate specific regions of the brain that are underactive in people with depression. Unlike medications, TMS doesn’t circulate through your entire body, it focuses directly on the brain circuits involved in mood.

During each session, you sit comfortably in a chair while a small magnetic coil is placed near your scalp. The device delivers controlled pulses that you may feel as a tapping sensation. You remain awake and alert, and you can usually return to work or normal activities immediately afterward.

• Approved for major depressive disorder
• No anesthesia or surgery required
• Usually 20–40 minutes per session
• Typical course: daily treatments, 5 days per week, over
several weeks

TMS treatment offers a safe, structured way to address depression symptoms when traditional treatments haven’t been enough.

How TMS Treatment Works & Who It Helps

Targeting the brain circuits involved in mood

neuroedge-tms-brain-circuits-mood

Over time, depression can alter activity in parts of the brain responsible for emotion and motivation. TMS uses repetitive magnetic pulses to gently “reset” these circuits, a process called neuroplasticity. Many patients experience gradual improvements in energy, sleep, and mood as the series progresses.

Who is a good candidate for TMS?

Frequently Asked Questions About TMS therapy

What is
TMS therapy?


TMS therapy (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) is a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate specific areas of the brain involved in mood. It’s FDA-approved for major depressive disorder and is often used when medications haven’t provided enough relief.

How long does each TMS session take?

Most TMS treatments last between 20 and 40 minutes. You’ll be seated comfortably in a chair for the duration of the session, and you can typically return to work or daily activities immediately afterwards.

How many TMS sessions will I need?

A typical course of TMS involves 5 sessions per week for several weeks. The exact number of treatments depends on your individual response and your provider’s recommendations. We’ll discuss a personalized plan during your consultation.

Is TMS covered by insurance?

Many major insurance plans cover TMS therapy for depression when certain criteria are met, such as previous trials of antidepressant medications. Our staff will help verify your coverage and explain any expected costs before treatment begins.

Does TMS have side effects?
Most people tolerate TMS well. The most common side effects are mild scalp discomfort or headache at the treatment site, which usually lessen over time. Serious side effects are rare, but we’ll discuss all risks and answer your questions before you start.
 Is TMS the same as ECT or brain surgery?
No. TMS is very different from electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) or surgical procedures. TMS is non-invasive, does not require anesthesia, and does not cause seizures. You remain awake and responsive during each session.
Is Brain Frequency™ the same as TMS?

No. TMS is an FDA-approved treatment for major depressive disorder that uses magnetic stimulation. Brain Frequency™ is a complementary, non-invasive neuromodulation approach that may support overall brain function. Your provider will explain the differences and whether either—or both—fit your plan.

When will I see results from TMS?
Some patients notice improvements in mood, sleep, or energy within the first couple of weeks, while others may need more sessions before changes become noticeable. Your provider will monitor your progress and adjust your TMS treatment plan as needed.
