What is TMS?

TMS therapy is an evidenced-based option for patients for treatment-resistant depression. It uses a highly focused, pulsed magnetic field (similar to an MRI) to stimulate a specific area of the brain associated with controlling mood. After repeated treatments, TMS therapy can decrease the symptoms of depression, anxious depression, or OCD.

When antidepressants fail to provide relief, TMS can help. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive, nonmedication, alternative treatment for depression and obsessive compulsive disorder.

TMS is Covered by most insurance plans

The good news is that many insurance providers cover TMS treatment for patients with major depressive disorder. Active Path Mental Health works with most commercial insurance plans as well as Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, and TriWest.
