• If you have a diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder and have not seen improvement with traditional medications, TMS Therapy may be a beneficial option.
• Typically, individuals have tried and failed with 2-4 medication trials before turning to TMS.
• TMS may also be a good option if you are dissatisfied with the results you're getting from your current medication(s) or cannot tolerate their side effects.
• Additionally, if you have an illness that prevents you from taking medication for depression, TMS may be a suitable alternative.
• Finally, if your depression and anxiety symptoms are significantly impacting your daily life, TMS Therapy may be worth considering

TMS is not suitable:
• If you have metal objects in your head that can't be taken out, except for metal fillings in your teeth, you may need to be careful.
• This also includes devices like pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs), and vagus nerve stimulators (VNS) that work with signals from your body.
• If you have a history of serious brain issues like epilepsy or head injuries, you may be at high risk.
