Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a treatment commonly used to improve symptoms of anxiety and depression. Using TMS for anxiety and similar mental health conditions works by stimulating certain nerve cells within the brain. Before providing treatment, a doctor positions an electromagnetic coil on the patient’s forehead. Next, pulses of magnetic energy are sent into the brain.
As a result, it’s possible to control moods and relieve severe symptoms. A doctor identifies the amount of energy needed before providing the treatment in question. Because of the potency of this treatment, it’s usually given after finding that medications are ineffective. This treatment is also regularly used if psychotherapy was ineffective at treating mental health disorders.
Our Los Angeles TMS therapy works by positioning an electromagnetic coil on the patient’s scalp. The coil delivers a magnetic pulse to the brain that stimulates surrounding nerve cells. The magnetic pulses target cells that play a part in depression and mood control. As a result, the pulses activate and rejuvenate areas with decreased activity.
Along with using TMS for OCD, anxiety and depression, this therapy also treats:

There is a range of benefits available with brain stimulation therapy. When using this TMS therapy for depression, it’s ideal for anyone who has yet to feel relief from medications. Behavioral health TMS stimulates the nerve cells within the prefrontal cortex that cause appetite changes and low energy levels.
This improves the activity in the area and reduces depression symptoms. When someone experiences obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), the prefrontal cortex suffers from increased inactivity. Moreover, the hyper-connectivity between the striatum and prefrontal cortex brings about severe symptoms of OCD.
TMS can inhibit this portion of the brain to reduce the symptoms of OCD. If someone wants to avoid using medications for a mental health condition, TMS has similar success rates. Response rates for patients who suffer from depression are as high as 64%. Additional research is necessary to determine how effective this therapy type is for other conditions.
Our TMS therapy sessions takes place in Los Angeles, California. The effectiveness of this treatment depends on the number of sessions they attend. Sessions are typically carried out daily for around 4 to 6 weeks. During the first session, the doctor must identify the correct placement of the electromagnetic coil. Furthermore, this session should last around 60 minutes. In some cases, the doctor will provide earplugs to wear while the treatment is ongoing.
When treatment begins, the doctor will switch the electromagnetic coil on and off to produce concurrent pulses. The client likely experience a tapping sensation as well as a clicking sound. It’s during this initial treatment that the doctor performs the mapping process to identify the number of necessary pulses. The pulses act as the dose for brain stimulation therapy. Some patients require a higher dose than others.
At Montare Behavioral Health, we understand that while many individuals experience life-changing benefits from TMS therapy, some have encountered increases in symptoms following TMS treatment and this needs to be taken into account prior to being treated. It’s essential to weigh the pros and cons of TMS therapy and understand that each person’s experience with transcranial magnetic stimulation will vary.
There is a risk that depression symptoms may increase, but typically only occurs if the person was not correctly diagnosed prior to treatment. This is more common in cases where there is underlying bipolar disorder, or other undiagnosed condition which could adversely affect treatment. We offer support and alternative treatment options for those who have had negative outcomes with TMS Treatment for Depression.
