Brainsway deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (dTMS) is an effective treatment for patients diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) where traditional treatment with medications has failed. The therapy is comparable to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and it involves magnetic pulses delivered to the area of the brain which regulates mood. The pulses stimulate this area to alleviate depressive symptoms.
dTMS therapy is often ideal for patients, because it has none of the side effects of traditional medications. Since dTMS is also a noninvasive procedure, it does not involve surgery or sedation of any kind that are required in other depression treatments.
If you are a patient suffering from depression who has not had satisfactory results from standard antidepressant medication, dTMS Therapy may be able to help. This novel alternative depression treatment is not a drug, so it does not circulate throughout the body and does not have the side effects that are associated with drug therapy.
For patients with depression who have not benefited from antidepressant medication, dTMS Therapy may be the solution. dTMS Therapy may not be right for everyone, so talk to a Brainsway physician to learn more about how this proven alternative depression treatment has helped other people with their depression, and whether it may help you or your loved one.
