FAQ
TMS  stands  for  “Transcranial  Magnetic  Stimulation.”    TMS  Treatment  is  a  medical procedure.    A  TMS  treatment  session  is  conducted  using  a  device  called  the  TMS Treatment System, which provides electrical energy to a “treatment coil” or magnet that delivers pulsed magnetic fields. These magnetic fields are the same type and strength as those  used  in  magnetic  resonance  imaging  (MRI)  machines. The  magnetic  pulses generate a weak electrical current in the brain that briefly activates neural circuits at the site of stimulation

TMS Treatment has been shown to be a safe and effective treatment for patients with certain mental disorderswho have not benefitted from medication or other traditionaltreatments.The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) has permitted use of TMS as a treatment formajor depressive disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder. While the FDA may not have specifically approved the use of the TMS system for other disorders, healthcare providers are permitted to use the treatment for an “unapproved” or “off-label” use when the provider considers such treatment is medically appropriate for the patient.

For each TMS treatment session, I will be brought into a specially equipped room and will be asked to remove any metal or magnetic-sensitive objects such as jewelry, credit cards, etc. Because the TMS Treatment system produces a loud click with each magnetic pulse I understand that I must wear earplugs or similar hearing protection devices with a rating of 30dB or higher of noise reduction during treatment for my comfort and safety. TMS does not require anesthesia or sedation, so I will be awake and alert during the entire procedure.

The TMS Treatment System should not be used by anyone who has magnetic-sensitive metal in his or her head or that is within 12 inches of the magnetic coil and cannot be removed.
Failure to follow this restriction could result in serious injury or death.
Objects that may have this kind of metal include:
• Aneurysm clips or coils
• Stents
• Implanted Stimulators
• Cardiac pacemakers or implantable cardioverter defibrilator
• Electrodes to monitor your brain activity
• Ferromagnetic implants in your ears or eyes
• Bullet fragments
• Other metal devices or objects implanted in the head
• Facial tattoos with metallic or magnetic-sensitive ink

TMS treatment causes seizures (sometimes called convulsions or fits) I will let my doctor know before my treatment if I have a history of a seizure disorder or if I experience a seizure at any time after my treatment.

I understand that if the ear protection devices I must wear to protect my hearing should become loose or fall out during my treatment I will notify the person administering my treatment immediately.

understand that the risks of exposure to TMS during pregnancy are unknown. I will inform mydoctor before my treatment begins if there is any chance that I may be pregnant.

I understand that there may be other unknown risks to the use of TMS treatment and that the longterm effects are not yet known

TMS treatment is a non medication treatment. we do not prescribe medicine.
