What Is TMS Therapy?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a safe, painless, outpatient treatment designed for individuals who haven’t found relief with medications or talk therapy. Using gentle magnetic pulses, TMS stimulates under active areas of the brain involved in mood regulation, restoring healthy brain activity and improving long-term symptoms of mental health conditions.
At TMS of Palm Beach in Boca Raton, we are proud providers of BrainsWay Deep TMS™, the most advanced technology available—penetrating deeper into brain networks for more effective and lasting results.You’ll regularly visit a skilled cosmetic dentist to have new teeth attached or adjusted.
