Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is a non invasive brain stimulation therapy that uses magnetic pulses to influence areas of the brain involved in mood, focus and emotional regulation.

rTMS is most often used for treatment resistant depression and can also support certain forms of anxiety, OCD, trauma related symptoms and other mood disorders, depending on individual assessment.

rTMS can be an option for people who do not respond well to medication, experience significant side effects or prefer a non medication approach. It can also be combined with other treatments.

During a session you are awake and seated comfortably. You may feel a tapping sensation on the scalp in the treatment area. Most people adapt quickly and can return to normal activities afterward.

A typical course involves multiple sessions per week over several weeks. The exact number depends on your protocol, response and clinical guidance.

Common side effects are usually mild, such as temporary scalp discomfort or headache. Serious side effects are rare and treatment is delivered within established safety guidelines.

Some individuals notice improvement during the course, while others experience benefits later as the brain consolidates changes. Your team will monitor progress closely throughout treatment.
