What is Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation?
Transcranial magnetic stimulation is an FDA-approved non-invasive neuromodulation therapy for treatment-resistant depression and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Repetitive and brief magnetic pulses are given by the treatment coil. It stimulates the growth of the neural system, regulates neural connections, and releases necessary brain chemicals.
Our Services
Psychiatric Evaluation
Patients often have significant symptoms but do not get a chance to see a specialist. When you come to NeuroLinks, you will see a psychiatrist. Your diagnosis, treatment history, and eligibility for TMS therapy will be reviewed. The assessment is completely covered by MSP.
Psychometric Assessment
You will complete some psychometric assessments which will inform us about your progress. Apart from the standardized psychometric assessments, our psychiatrist may also implement some tailor-made evaluation tools depending on your needs.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
You will receive 5 treatments a week, for 4 to 6 weeks, depending on the treatment response. Accelerated TMS is available on request, which is an intensive course of treatment given over 5 days. After the TMS treatment, your family doctor will receive a treatment report with recommendations from the psychiatrist.
