NeuroStar TMS Therapy® is indicated for the treatment of Major Depressive Disorder in adult patients who have failed to achieve satisfactory improvement from one prior antidepressant medication at or above the minimal effective dose and duration in the current episode.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) Therapy uses short pulses of magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the area of the brain thought to control mood. 

TMS Therapy is performed in a psychiatrist’s office under their supervision while you remain awake and alert. Neurostar TMS Therapy is an outpatient procedure. The typical treatment course consists of 5 treatments per week over a 4-6 week period for 20-30 treatments. Each treatment session lasts approximately 37 minutes.
