Antidepressants not working?

Try TMS.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a FDA-approved, safe, and non-drug treatment for those who have tried 2 or more antidepressants. Now it’s available at Sagent Behavioral Health in Eden Prairie, MN, Maple Grove, MN, and Iowa City, IA.

If you’ve tried multiple antidepressants and still can’t find relief, you may feel like you’re out of options. But there is hope!

TMS targets depression at the source using a mild magnetic field (like an MRI) to stimulate the part of the brain that’s under-stimulated in people with depression.

It’s non-invasive, comfortable, covered by most insurance, and has none of the side effects of traditional depression treatment!

83% of patients recover from depression and experience long-lasting relief, and you can, too, while spots are available.

What is Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation?

TMS therapy is a non-drug treatment for major depression. Using magnetic pulses, like an MRI, it reignites dormant synapses in the brain and helps your brain function the way it was meant to.

It’s not a drug, “shock” therapy, or surgery. You’re totally awake and alert during treatment and many patients will read or watch TV during their 20-minute sessions.  It’s a safe and effective treatment for depression without the common side effects of medication.

Why TMS?

Proven Effective

TMS has been FDA approved for the treatment of depression since 2008, TMS therapy has helped many patients find relief—approximately 83% experience improvement, and about 62% achieve full remission. Both clinical research and patient experience show that TMS works.

Convenient

Treatments typically take 30 minutes or less often shorter than a lunch break and can be scheduled to fit your routine. You remain fully awake and alert during sessions, with the ability to read, relax, or watch TV. Patients can drive themselves to and from appointments and return to daily activities right away.

Long-lasting

TMS therapy has been shown to provide lasting benefits, with many patients maintaining improvement for up to a year after treatment.

FAQs

TMS Therapy for depression is covered by most insurance plans, including Medicare and state-funded plans. Our team is available to assist with verifying TMS insurance coverage.

TMS is not ECT (or electroconvulsive “shock” therapy). TMS uses magnetic waves similar in strength to an MRI machine. When you’re doing TMS, you’re fully awake and alert during treatment and after treatment, you can go about your day as normal. ECT, on the other hand, applies direct electrical current through the skull and into the brain rather than magnetic waves and must be done under anesthesia.

TMS has been systematically evaluated for its effect on memory. These clinical trials demonstrated that TMS does not result in any adverse effects on memory or concentration.
