Think Neuro Mini: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) with Dr. David Merrill
Manage episode 391961272 series 3488064
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) represents an exciting non-medication and noninvasive option for treatment of some brain health conditions, specifically TMS for depression. TMS works by using magnetic therapy in the form of magnetic field pulses to stimulate the brain’s nerve cells to alleviate the symptoms associated with depression. In addition, there is growing research exploring the effectiveness of TMS in other neurological conditions, including Alzheimer’s disease and other memory disorders.
At Pacific Brain Health Center, Dr. David Merrill offers TMS for depression using a MagVenture device. It offers a unique, short, 3 minute TBS (theta burst) protocol for the treatment of Major Depressive Disorder in adult patients who have failed to receive satisfactory improvements from prior antidepressant medication in the current episode.
