# Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation: Revolutionary Depression Treatment
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment for individuals struggling with depression, particularly those who have not responded to traditional therapies such as medication or psychotherapy. At Lotus Psychiatry and Wellness, we offer cutting-edge TMS therapy to help our patients achieve lasting mental wellness.

TMS works by using magnetic pulses to stimulate specific regions of the brain involved in mood regulation. Unlike medications that affect the entire body, TMS precisely targets the prefrontal cortex, the area most often linked with depression.

## How Does TMS Work?
During a **[Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation](https://lotuspsychiatryandwellness.com/transcranial-magnetic-stimulation-how-it-works/)** session, a magnetic coil is placed on the scalp near the forehead. This coil delivers focused magnetic pulses that stimulate nerve cells and increase brain activity in areas known to affect mood.

Each session typically lasts 20 to 40 minutes, and patients remain awake and alert throughout the procedure. The treatment is painless, and most individuals resume their normal activities immediately afterward.

Patients generally undergo TMS therapy five days a week for 4 to 6 weeks, followed by maintenance sessions if needed. Our team at Lotus Psychiatry and Wellness customizes treatment plans based on each individual’s mental health needs and progress.

## Benefits of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
TMS has emerged as a promising option for people with treatment-resistant depression. Here are some of the key benefits:

Non-Invasive and Drug-Free: No anesthesia or medication is required.

Minimal Side Effects: Unlike antidepressants, TMS does not cause weight gain, fatigue, or sexual dysfunction.

Clinically Proven Results: Many patients report a significant reduction in symptoms after a full course of treatment.

Improved Quality of Life: TMS can help patients return to their daily lives with restored hope and functionality.

## Who Is a Good Candidate for TMS?

Have not responded to two or more antidepressants
