Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy
Good Samaritan offers Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)—a cutting-edge, noninvasive treatment for individuals struggling with depression that has not responded to traditional therapies.
What is TMS?
TMS uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain, helping to improve symptoms of depression. This therapy is particularly beneficial for individuals who:
- Have not found relief from standard treatments such as medications or talk therapy
- Are seeking a noninvasive alternative to other depression treatments
- Want to explore additional options for managing their mental health
How Does TMS Work?
Repetitive TMS (rTMS) is administered in a series of sessions, typically over several weeks. During treatment, a specialized device delivers targeted magnetic pulses to areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. This process is painless, requires no sedation, and allows patients to resume normal activities immediately after each session.
Schedule
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy is administered by Psychiatrist, Dr. Glen Oriaifo. If you would like more information or have questions regarding TMS treatment, please contact us at 812-885-3292.
