What is TMS?
TMS or Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment used primarily for managing mental health conditions, such as major depressive disorder (MDD). It involves using magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in specific areas of the brain associated with mood regulation and cognitive function often leading to complete remission from depression.

When people are considering TMS, it usually means they’ve tried other methods that have failed. Most have tried many different medications spanning their entire adult lives without success. Some may have just given up hope that there may be a way out of depression. That’s why Lakeside TMS is dedicated to giving these patients another option.

Why Deep TMS from Lakeside?
Lakeside uses specialized deep TMS technology from Brainsway

Deeper Brain Stimulation: Deep TMS penetrates deeper layers of the brain, allowing for more extensive stimulation of neural circuits that are often associated with mood regulation and other cognitive functions.

H-Coil Technology: Deep TMS uses specialized H-coil technology, which is designed to target and stimulate broader and deeper brain structures than the figure-8 coils used in traditional TMS.

In real-life community treatment settings, 20 sessions of Deep TMS produce remission rates even higher than those observed in clinical trials. Among patients who went on to complete a treatment course of 30 sessions, 75% had a response to treatment and 1 in 2 achieved full remission.
