Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS)

Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic fields to stimulate specific areas of the brain. A device places a coil near the scalp, generating magnetic pulses that influence brain activity. It’s often used to help alleviate depression by targeting brain regions involved in mood regulation. The procedure is generally safe, painless, and lasts about 30-40 minutes per session. rTMS can help improve symptoms when other treatments haven’t been effective, promoting healthier brain function through targeted electromagnetic stimulation.
