Does This Sound Like You?
You’re not alone—and there’s something you can do about it.
Constantly battling low moods, overwhelming sadness, or anxiety that never really goes away? No matter how hard you try — therapy, different medications, lifestyle changes — it still feels impossible to break the cycle. You keep waiting to feel normal again, but the fog never fully lifts.
You’ve tried medication… but nothing really changes. You’ve switched doses, switched brands, dealt with side effects — yet the depression or anxiety never truly lifts. It feels like you’re stuck in a cycle that medication just can’t break.
You’ve done traditional therapy… but you still don’t feel like yourself. You talk, you reflect, you put in the work — but the fog, low motivation, or anxiety keeps lingering. You’re doing everything you’re “supposed” to do, but the relief you hoped for just isn’t happening.

HOW IT WORKS
TMS: Treating depression at the source
Medical treatments for depression are usually centered around antidepressants that rely on the systems in your body to deliver relief. NeuroStar Advanced TMS treatments go right to the source of depression—your brain.
There are specific areas in your brain that control mood. When synapses in those mood-regulating areas are underactive, connections are broken and depression can result. NeuroStar revitalizes those dormant synapses, “waking up” the brain to function as it was meant to.

Frequently Asked
Questions

What is TMS NeuroStar Advanced Therapy for Mental Health?
NeuroStar is a non-invasive FDA-cleared therapy that uses short magnetic pulses to stimulate nerve cells in the area of the brain that controls mood. These pulses can have a lasting effect on the brain’s neurotransmitter levels, helping people suffering from depression, anxiety symptoms in those with depression, and OCD achieve response and in some cases long-term remission from depression symptoms. Because NeuroStar is not a drug, it doesn’t cause the side effects that are often associated with antidepressants.
How does TMS works?
NeuroStar is a non-drug and non-invasive treatment for depression, anxiety symptoms associated with depression and OCD delivered in a doctor’s office. You recline comfortably in a NeuroStar chair (much like a dentist’s chair or spa chair) during treatment. During a treatment session, precisely targeted magnetic pulses stimulate the mood-regulating areas in the brain. There is no anesthesia or sedation. You are fully awake and alert during treatment, and you can resume normal activities immediately after a treatment session.
Can TMS help me achieve remission from depression symptoms, and how long can it last?
NeuroStar is a non-drug, non-invasive therapy that can help you achieve long-term relief from the symptoms of depression. Many people’s depression symptoms significantly improve or go away after 4 to 6 weeks of treatment. In clinical studies, NeuroStar has shown to provide acute treatment response and remission for over one year.
Is TMS safe and does it have any side effects?
An FDA-cleared depression treatment, NeuroStar Advanced Therapy is safe and easy to tolerate.9 Because it’s non-drug and non-invasive, it does not have the common systemic side effects of medication. NeuroStar does not have any effects on cognition or sleep. The most common side effect associated with NeuroStar is mild to moderate pain or discomfort that typically subsides within the first week of treatment.
Does TMS cause memory loss?
NeuroStar has been systematically evaluated for its effects on memory. These clinical trials demonstrated that NeuroStar does not result in any adverse effects on memory or concentration.
Do TMS treatments hurt?
During the session, you will feel a tapping sensation on your head. Each treatment session lasts around 19 minutes. Some NeuroStar patients experience mild to moderate pain or discomfort at or near the treatment site during the first week of treatment. This is usually temporary and subsides in subsequent treatments.
Is TMS covered by insurance?
NeuroStar TMS Therapy for depression is covered by most insurance plans, including Medicare and Tricare, usually after medication options have proven ineffective in your major depression treatment.
