When you are struggling with major depressive disorder, it can start to feel like you are running out of options. You may have tried therapy and medication without success. It can be frustrating to put so much effort into treating depression without any relief.
If you have tried unsuccessfully to treat depression, Brainsway TMS therapy could be a solution. This noninvasive treatment uses magnetic pulses to help restore balance to the parts of your brain that affect mood. Administered by a trained clinician, this procedure has assisted many people for whom medication has not worked or who prefer a drug-free approach. If you want to take charge of your mental health, learning about the benefits of Brainsway TMS therapy can help you decide whether it is right for you.
Transcranial magnetic stimulation, or TMS, is an FDA-cleared therapy for major depressive disorder. It works by sending magnetic pulses to specific areas of the brain that control mood. By helping to activate underactive brain cells, these pulses improve communication between brain regions involved in emotional regulation.
Standard TMS systems utilize a figure-eight coil. This coil focuses on a small, surface-level area of the brain. Many people benefit from standard TMS, but because it reaches only limited regions, some may not experience full symptom relief.
The advantages of Brainsway TMS treatment stem from its Deep TMS technology. Its unique H-coil design allows magnetic fields to penetrate deeper and more widely into the brain. This deeper stimulation means it can reach the broader neural networks involved in depression, anxious depression, and other conditions that standard TMS may not target as effectively. In studies comparing the two approaches, Deep TMS has shown strong and consistent results for people who did not respond to medication or traditional TMS.
Depression does not come from a single part of the brain. It involves complex networks. One of the most significant advantages of therapy with Brainsway TMS is its ability to reach deeper brain structures. Deep TMS is designed to stimulate those deeper regions, giving your brain the extra boost it may need to respond to treatment.
Another reason to use Brainsway TMS is its comfort and convenience. Brainsway TMS does not require anesthesia, hospitalization, or recovery time. The side effects are minimal, usually limited to mild scalp discomfort that fades quickly after the session. You stay awake throughout the procedure, and because it is noninvasive, you can continue your daily routine without interruption.
The Brainsway Deep TMS system is backed by strong clinical research and is FDA-cleared for several conditions, including major depressive disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder. This means you can feel confident knowing the treatment is safe, proven, and supported by real evidence.
Brainsway TMS offers a noninvasive and effective way to reach the parts of your brain that most need help. By targeting deeper brain areas that regulate your mood, this therapy can help bring lasting relief when other treatments have not worked.
