# TMS: A Revolutionary Approach to Treating Depression
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment for individuals suffering from depression, especially those who haven’t responded well to medication or therapy. TMS uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in specific areas of the brain associated with mood regulation. At Lotus Psychiatry and Wellness, we proudly offer cutting-edge TMS therapy to help patients regain control of their mental health.

## How Does TMS Work?
TMS involves the placement of a magnetic coil on the scalp, which delivers focused magnetic pulses to stimulate underactive areas of the brain linked to depression. The process is painless, drug-free, and doesn’t require anesthesia. Each session typically lasts around 20 minutes, and patients can return to normal activities immediately after treatment.

By activating specific brain regions, **[TMS](https://lotuspsychiatryandwellness.com/neurostar-tms/)** helps improve mood, increase energy, and reduce the symptoms of major depressive disorder (MDD). It is particularly effective for patients who have not found relief through traditional antidepressants.

## Who Is a Good Candidate for TMS?
TMS is best suited for individuals diagnosed with major depressive disorder who haven’t seen improvement from at least one antidepressant. It’s also a valuable option for patients looking to avoid the side effects of medications or who want to complement their current treatment plan.
