TMS of the Carolinas is pleased to serve the residents of Raleigh from our dedicated center located at 7780 Brier Creek Pkwy Ste 300, Raleigh, NC 27617. We specialize in providing advanced transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) therapy, a non-invasive treatment option designed to help individuals struggling with certain mental health conditions.
What is TMS Therapy?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a cutting-edge therapeutic technology used primarily for the treatment of depression. During a TMS session, our trained technicians use an electromagnetic device to create precisely measured magnetic fields. These fields gently stimulate nerve cells in specific areas of the brain that may be underactive and contributing to depression symptoms. Unlike traditional antidepressant medications, TMS targets the brain directly without requiring ingested substances.
How Does TMS Work at Our Raleigh Center?
At our Raleigh location, our team of experienced professionals will conduct a thorough evaluation to determine if TMS therapy is appropriate for you. If recommended, our state-of-the-art equipment ensures precise targeting of the brain regions involved in mood regulation. The treatment is typically well-tolerated, with most patients reporting minimal discomfort, often describing the sensation as a tapping or tapping-like feeling on the scalp.
Benefits of Choosing TMS of the Carolinas in Raleigh
Opting for TMS therapy at our Raleigh facility offers several advantages. The procedure is generally well-tolerated with a significantly lower risk of side effects compared to some pharmaceutical interventions. TMS is an outpatient treatment, meaning you can return to your daily activities, including work or school, on the same day your session concludes. Furthermore, TMS does not require sedation, allowing you to maintain your normal routine without interruption.
