Whether you’re seeking support for anxiety, depression, ADHD, or treatment-resistant depression, our evidence-based approach ensures personalized care tailored to your unique needs.
NeuroStar uses transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to activate specific regions of the brain that tend to be less active in people with depression. This therapy is not electroconvulsive therapy (ECT).
Although the precise cause of depression is still not fully understood, the most widely accepted scientific view is that it involves imbalances in neurotransmitters. These are chemical messengers responsible for communication between brain cells.
What is NeuroStar Advanced Therapy (TMS)?
During a NeuroStar treatment session, a magnetic coil, comparable in strength to those used in MRI technology, delivers targeted pulses to nerve cells in areas of the brain associated with mood regulation. These pulses may help rebalance neurotransmitter activity and support the possibility of lasting remission.
NeuroStar Advanced Therapy is designed to be straightforward:
• Sessions take place in a NeuroStar provider’s office
• You can resume normal activities immediately after treatment
• You remain awake and alert during each session
• No known negative impact on memory or sleep
• Covered by most major insurance plans, including Medicare and TRICARE
