TMS Therapy for Depression in Columbia

Depression is one of the most common mental health concerns in the world. Many patients can manage their depression with medication and psychotherapy. However, not all patients benefit from these traditional treatments.

While medication can be very helpful in managing depression, we understand that medication may not always be right for our patient’s needs. That’s why we proudly offer the number one physician-recommended TMS therapy, NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy.

NeuroStar: For When Medication and Therapy Are Not Enough

Traditional treatments such as medication and therapy are not always the right fit for our patients with depression. As a patient with depression struggling with standard treatment, you may find yourself experiencing one or more of the following situations:

• You do not want to take medication to manage your condition
• You take medication to manage your condition, but you still experience the same or worse symptoms
• The side effects of your medication interfere with your daily life
• You switch between medications with no results
• You are unable, ineligible for, or not willing to undergo therapy
• You have tried multiple therapists or types of therapy with no results
• Therapy is too expensive and slow for your needs, or it does not help manage your symptoms

If this sounds like you, TMS therapy for depression in Columbia may be right for your needs. In a simple, six-week treatment course at Synergy Strive, this ground-breaking TMS treatment may help you manage your depression and experience a new lease on life.

How Does TMS Therapy for Depression Work?

Patients diagnosed with depression experience reduced brain activity compared to those without the condition, particularly in regions of the brain responsible for regulating mood, emotion, and behavior. This causes depressive symptoms, including persistent feelings of sadness, decreased energy levels, loss of interest in social interactions, and an overall sense of emotional numbness or emptiness, which can profoundly impact daily life and emotional well-being.

NeuroStar uses safe, gentle, powerful electromagnetic pulses to treat the brain areas involved with depression, essentially “waking up” these lower-functioning areas of the brain and stimulating the brain’s activity. As a result, NeuroStar helps you regulate your behavior, emotions, and mood. It can also enhance your desire for social engagement and help you experience fewer depression days. Over time, your brain improves its activity by itself.
