TRANSCRANIAL MAGNETIC STIMULATION (TMS)

WHAT IS TMS?
TMS (or Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) is a painless and effective treatment for depression and has been used to treat thousands of patients worldwide for over thirty years.
It has also been used to treat conditions such as obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), addiction, chronic pain and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
At Mind Oasis Clinic we use repetitive TMS (or rTMS) to precisely target the area of the brain that is involved in depression. Studies have clearly shown that rTMS is an effective treatment for patients with depression.
TMS can be effective even if patients have failed to respond to antidepressant medications. Unlike other treatments, such as electro-convulsive therapy (ECT), TMS does not cause cognitive side effects or memory problems. No anesthesia or sedation is used, so patients can drive themselves to and from treatment and even go back to work or school right after a treatment. There is no need to disrupt the usual routine.
