We specialize in NeuroStar® transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy, a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment designed to help individuals struggling with depression.
At our Charlotte center, we understand that navigating mental health challenges can be overwhelming. Our focus is on delivering personalized care within a clinical setting, utilizing state-of-the-art technology to potentially offer relief where traditional treatments have fallen short.
NeuroStar TMS therapy is specifically designed for adults experiencing treatment-resistant depression. Using focused magnetic pulses, this FDA-cleared procedure stimulates nerve cells in the brain's prefrontal cortex, an area often underactive in individuals with depression. Unlike some other treatments, TMS does not require anesthesia, has no known side effects (the most common being mild scalp discomfort during treatment), and does not involve any electrical current passing through the scalp or body.
Our team at TMS of the Carolinas is committed to guiding you through every step of the process, from the initial consultation and screening to the completion of your TMS treatment plan. We believe in a collaborative approach, ensuring you have a clear understanding of your treatment options and are actively involved in your recovery journey.
