How dTMS Treatment Works

- You’ll sit in a comfortable chair in a private room
- A TMS technician will place the Brainsway™ dTMS helmet on top of your head
- The TMS device delivers very short bursts of magnetic pulses, similar to an MRI
- Total treatment time is about 20-30 minutes
- Once done, you can drive yourself home or go back to work
In a long-term study of patients undergoing TMS therapy, 68% showed a positive response, and 45% were in remission after a year following treatment. [1]

What is Deep TMS Therapy?
Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (dTMS) is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression.
Insurance Coverage for TMS
Insurance accepted for treating Depression, specifically TMS therapy, has more than doubled in the last few years, a sign that insurance companies must see cost savings in a treatment method for major depressive disorder (MDD) that works more efficiently than the traditional regimen alone. Patients who continually suffer from the debilitating effects of medication-resistant depression may acquire other health conditions as a result, such as a substance abuse disorder or unhealthy weight gain, to name a few. The fact that more and more insurance companies are providing coverage for TMS indicates a cost benefit to the insurer, thus the broadening of benefits.
