How Does TMS Work?
Transcranial magnetic stimulation uses magnetic fields to stimulate specific areas of the brain associated with mood. In a session, an electromagnetic coil is placed against the scalp, delivering focused magnetic pulses that pass painlessly through the skull. These pulses generate small electrical currents that modulate the activity of nerve cells in the targeted brain region, reviving dormant synapses in your brain. Over time, regular sessions strengthen neural pathways to improve brain function and reduce symptoms of depression. Think of it like physical therapy for the brain; encouraging small adjustments that gently support growth and improvement, accruing over time to improve your mind.
