TMS treatment for depression - second course

Smart TMS delivers the second course of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) which uses magnetic pulses to treat depression. The magnetic pulses are focused on the region of the brain responsible for managing emotions and mood regulation. This non-intrusive procedure gained NICE approval in the UK in 2015 as a treatment option for depression. TMS is widely used in the USA for the treatment of depression as it is approved by the FDA, and is also used throughout various European countries to treat depression.

The effectiveness of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) in alleviating the symptoms of depression lies in its ability to stimulate the brain, specifically the prefrontal cortex—an integral region responsible for mood regulation, motivation, and social skills. By employing precise magnetic pulses, TMS treatment addresses the underlying issue by resetting brain patterns and pathways. Approved by NICE (the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) for depression treatment in 2015, TMS is widely utilised in the United States (FDA-approved) and various European countries.
