TMS of the Carolinas - Raleigh Location
Welcome to TMS of the Carolinas, your dedicated center for advanced transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy located at 7780 Brier Creek Pkwy Ste 300, Raleigh, NC 27617. We specialize in providing state-of-the-art TMS treatment specifically for our patients in the Raleigh area, offering a non-invasive and effective option for conditions like major depressive disorder.
What is Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is a cutting-edge, non-invasive therapeutic procedure used primarily for treatment-resistant depression. At our Raleigh facility, we utilize TMS technology to gently stimulate specific areas of the brain associated with mood regulation. A small device passes magnetic fields over the scalp, targeting nerve cells in the prefrontal cortex to promote neural activity and potentially alleviate symptoms of depression.
How Does TMS Therapy Work?
During a typical TMS session at our Raleigh center, you will be comfortably seated, and a specialized sensor will be positioned against your head. This sensor generates brief magnetic pulses that pass harmlessly through the skull and induce small electrical currents in the targeted brain regions. The procedure is generally well-tolerated, requiring no sedation. You will hear a clicking sound and may feel a tapping sensation on your head during the treatment. Sessions usually last between 20 to 40 minutes and are typically conducted five days a week for several weeks.
