Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is FDA and CE approved treatment. It is used to treat mental health conditions. It is based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. It works by stimulating or inhibiting the neuronal activity in the brain.

    WHY rTMS?

    It is a focal, non-invasive and very well-tolerated form of brain stimulation in clinical use for nearly 20 years which is safe for almost all patients.

    What are the precautions of rTMS?

    The treatment should not be used if you have metal implants in or around the head. A history of seizures, brain damage or other severe medical conditions should be informed in detail.

    IS IT INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNIZED?

    In the year 2002 and 2008 respectively, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) was approved by Health Canada and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as the treatment for depression. Moreover, New Zealand, Israel and so many other countries also have recognized that repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) can be used for treatment of depression. The evidence in academic literature suggests that growth of rTMS has increased by over 20% indicating a prominent role of rTMS in basic science and clinical practice.

    Typically, patients hear a tapping sound and feel a tapping sensation in the head area during the treatment.

    How does rTMS work?

    In rTMS treatment, an instrument called a stimulator supplies electrical energy to a magnetic coil that generates a magnetic field in the brain for a short period of time. It is an outpatient procedure which does not require hospitalization or anesthesia, and entails no memory loss. Each rTMS session is roughly 20-35 minutes long. After the session, patients require no recovery period and are able to go about their daily activities immediately following treatment.

    What are the side effects?

    rTMS therapy is often ideal for patients, because it has none of the side effects of traditional medications. The most common side effects are temporary and mild headaches, muscle twitching and local discomfort.

    MECHANISM OF rTMS

    The magnetic pulses are changed rapidly to alter the activity of neurons within the brain, as a result of which the neurons change their firing pattern with respect to induced magnetic pulses. The magnetic pulses within the circuit of brain are responsible for changing the firing pattern that is causing any mental health disorder such as anxiety, depression and other neurological or psychiatric disorders. This changing of neuronal activity is the base of mechanism of the rTMS treatment.

    FAQ:

    1Can rTMS treat pain?
    Yes, rTMS helps in treating pain. A pulsed magnetic field generated by magnetic stimulation acts on the central and peripheral nervous systems, and a neuromodulation technique that causes changes in neuronal plasticity due to excitability of the nerve, release of the transmitter, local blood flow, and metabolic changes through pulsed magnetic fields of different frequency intensities. The use of multi-channel neural modulation achieves the goal of treating pain.

    2What is the stimulation intensity of rTMS treatment?
    During the treatment, the stimulation intensity and stimulation frequency can be finely adjusted to avoid long-term stimulation of the same intensity and frequency, so that the patient adapts and reduces the curative effect. As for the patients who are unable to receive long-term treatment, they can reduce the frequency of treatment later, such as gradually reducing to weekly treatment to consolidate the efficacy.
