Deep TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) is a safe and effective FDA-cleared treatment option for individuals seeking relief from certain mental health conditions.While widely applicable, specific criteria determine if it's the right choice for you.
Important Considerations for Eligibility
During your initial consultation, our Teamcare Sunny Skies will conduct a thorough evaluation to ensure Deep TMS is safe and appropriate for your individual circumstances.Key factors they will assess include:
Treatment History: As mentioned, Deep TMS is often considered when other treatments (like medication or therapy) have been tried and haven't worked well.
Medical History: Certain medical conditions or implants may prevent you from receiving Deep TMS.
This includes any ferromagnetic metal implants in or around the head (e.g., aneurysm clips, stents, cochlear implants, certain dental work, metal fragments/shrapnel).
Standard amalgam dental fillings are generally safe.
Implanted electronic devices in the body (e.g., pacemakers, implanted defibrillators, vagus nerve stimulators).
A history of seizures or certain neurological conditions (e.g., epilepsy, severe head trauma, brain tumors, stroke).
Current Medications: Certain medications can affect seizure threshold and will be reviewed.
Pregnancy or Nursing: If you are pregnant or nursing, your eligibility will be carefully discussed.
We encourage you to schedule consultation so our Teamcare Sunny Skies can personally assess your unique situation and determine if Deep TMS is the best path forward for you.
Your safety and well-being are our top priority.
