How Does TMS Work?
Before:
You’ll recline comfortably in the treatment chair. A small, curved magnetic coil will be positioned lightly on your head.
During:
NeuroStar delivers focused magnetic stimulation directly to the target areas of the brain. You’ll hear a clicking sound and feel a tapping sensation on your head.
After:
You can resume normal activities immediately. No effects on alertness or memory.
