TMS Therapy for PTSD

What is PTSD?

Living with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can be a nightmare—literally. PTSD can cause flashbacks, night terrors, and severe anxiety. The symptoms can last for months or years and can interfere with your day-to-day functioning. If you’ve experienced PTSD, you know this all too well. And you’d do anything to be free from the debilitating effects.

We understand how painful this can be. And that’s why we offer a breakthrough new treatment for PTSD. It’s called alpha peak frequency guided TMS. It is completely non-invasive, and drug-free and, in most cases, resulted in significant improvement in symptoms.

Frequently Asked Questions

TMS has been shown to help alleviate symptoms that result from PTSD. Many patients experience traumatic flashbacks, anxiety, and depression. TMS can reduce these symptoms by optimizing brain activity in areas associated with PTSD, which can improve coping and resilience.

TMS is considered safe. It has been studied extensively and approved by the FDA for nearly 20 years. Our team does a thorough intake to ensure your safety throughout the process. 

TMS works by using magnetic impulses to either inhibit overactive areas of the brain or excite underactive areas of the brain. The energy that is emitted stimulates neurons in the brain and can aid in relieving symptoms related to mood, energy, and cognitive function.

Many patients experience no side effects while undergoing TMS. Some patients report having a headache the first few days, which can go away with over-the-counter NSAIDs. 

Sessions relatively quick, with many lasting up to about 30 minutes, including set-up and stimulation. Staff will place a tracker on your face, and a coil on your head. You will feel mild to moderate taps on your head that have been described as a "woodpecker" sensation.  Our staff aims to be punctual and efficient with your treatment as we know many of our patients can have busy lives. 

Every patient is different. Some feel better right away, and some feel better after a few weeks. Your provider/technician will talk more with you about all of the normal reactions. 

 Yes! We highly recommend and encourage psychotherapy alongside TMS therapy.  We have providers we can recommend to you if you do not already have a therapist.  

Each insurance company has different acceptance criteria, so please contact our offices so that we can run eligibility and benefits to tell you exactly what your financial obligation would be assuming you qualify for treatment.  In the event you would not qualify for insurance, we can help you with either a payment plan or work with a third party called CareCredit with offers interest free payment plans.
