What is TMS Therapy?

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate underactive areas of the brain associated with mood regulation. Unlike medications, which impact the entire body, TMS therapy directly targets the brain, helping to restore proper function in the regions responsible for depression and other conditions. NeuroStar TMS therapy, as offered in our Ithaca office, is a proven, innovative approach that has helped thousands of patients achieve meaningful relief.

Does it Work?

Yes! NeuroStar TMS therapy has been proven effective in clinical studies and real-world applications. Here are some compelling NeuroStar statistics about patients with depression treated with NeuroStar (Sackeim HA, et al. (2020). J Affect Disord, 277:65 74. Based on a real-world, retrospective study using CGI-S and a sample size of 615 patients):

  • 83% of patients experienced significant symptom improvement.
  • 62% of patients achieved complete remission from depression.

These results demonstrate NeuroStar’s ability to transform lives, offering hope to individuals who have tried other treatments without success. Tompkins TMS hopes to offer the same results to anyone experiencing major depression, anxious depression, or OCD.
