Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is a specialized treatment method that uses non-invasive pulses of magnetic energy waves to stimulate brain neuron cells closely linked to mood and emotions, including depression. This FDA-approved therapy requires about 20 minutes per day for approximately 6 weeks and is covered by most insurance providers. TMS has proven results that surpass the recovery and improvement rates of traditional treatments. TMS is also done outpatient, is non-invasive, and with only few potential side effects. Dr. Larson is the only provider in Southern Utah with the latest Magstim TMS machine.
TMS therapy can be a great option for OCD, postpartum depression and traditional depression treatment. It can also be coupled with medication, therapy and other treatment techniques to further improve outcomes. As an FDA-approved and noninvasive treatment, it offers a low-risk option for improving well-being.
Please keep in mind that, if you have an implant in the skull or if you have a history of seizures or take a medicine that increases the risk of seizure, our providers may recommend other treatment options.
