TMS, or Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression. At our clinic on US-301 in Riverview, you will be seated in a comfortable chair. An electromagnetic coil is placed gently against your scalp near your forehead. The treatment involves delivering focused magnetic pulses, and you will hear a clicking sound and feel a tapping sensation during the procedure. You are awake and alert throughout the session, which typically lasts about 20 minutes.
