For some people, traditional treatments for depression are ineffective at alleviating symptoms.
Dedicated to providing comprehensive care to help patients get relief from their depression, the expert team at OPA Behavioral Health offers transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). To learn more about the noninvasive procedure for the treatment of depression, contact the Orlando, Florida office by phone or book your visit online today.
What is transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)?
TMS is a noninvasive procedure the team uses to treat higher levels of depression, usually in adults over the age of 21. During treatment, your provider places a magnetic coil on your head and delivers magnetic pulses to specific areas of your brain. The magnetic pulses stimulate the nerve cells responsible for your mood to increase nerve activity and improve your depression symptoms.
OPA Behavioral Health uses the FDA-cleared NeuroStar® device for TMS therapy. The treatment is insurance-based.
Am I a good candidate for TMS?
The team specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of depression and also offers a medication management program. Depending on your treatment history, the team may first recommend therapy and medication for your depression before offering TMS therapy.
During a thorough consultation, your psychiatrist at Orlando Psychiatric Associates determines if you’re a good candidate for TMS therapy. The team only recommends the noninvasive treatment for patients with higher levels of depression who are unresponsive or unable to get results from medication.
The doctors and clinicians at OPA Behavioral Health see patients from age 3 years and up.
The friendly staff and providers at each location offer a caring, individualized approach tailored to each patient to ensure that every person receives the full support they need.
