We are committed to offering effective, non-invasive treatment options for individuals seeking relief from specific conditions within our local community.
Our facility is designed specifically to provide a comfortable and focused environment for patients undergoing TMS therapy. We understand that finding the right treatment requires trust and confidence, and we strive to deliver that through our expertise and personalized care.
What is NeuroStar TMS Therapy?
NeuroStar TMS is a non-invasive therapeutic treatment designed to help individuals suffering from treatment-resistant depression (TRD). This condition occurs when patients have tried multiple courses of medication without achieving satisfactory symptom relief.
The therapy works by using focused, high-frequency pulses of magnetic energy to stimulate targeted areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. The treatment is delivered through an advanced device specifically cleared by the FDA for this purpose.
Unlike traditional antidepressant medications, NeuroStar TMS does not require ingesting any substances and therefore does not carry the risk of systemic side effects like weight gain, sexual dysfunction, or emotional blunting often associated with pharmaceutical interventions.
During a typical TMS session, patients remain comfortably seated and awake, wearing ear protection similar to earplugs. They listen to music or engage in conversation with the clinician throughout the procedure, which usually lasts about 20-40 minutes per session.
Conditions Treated at Our Franklin Clinic
At TMS of Tennessee, our primary focus at our Franklin location is the treatment of:
Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD)
For Franklin residents struggling with depression despite trying multiple effective medications, NeuroStar TMS offers a promising alternative. Our team works closely with patients to determine if TMS is an appropriate option based on their specific circumstances.
Anxiety Disorders
While our primary FDA indication is for TRD, many patients at our Franklin clinic report experiencing significant reduction in symptoms of anxiety disorders following TMS treatment. We carefully evaluate each patient's primary presenting issue.
Our Treatment Approach at 354 Downs Blvd
At our Franklin location, we adhere strictly to the established protocols for NeuroStar TMS Therapy. Our team includes experienced clinicians who are thoroughly trained in the administration and principles of TMS.
The initial phase involves a comprehensive evaluation to determine candidacy for TMS. Our staff will discuss your medical history, current symptoms, and previous treatment experiences to ensure TMS is the right fit for you.
Subsequent to the screening, a BrainMap® assessment is performed. This advanced mapping procedure identifies the specific areas of the brain needing stimulation, allowing our technicians to customize the treatment coil placement for optimal results.
Our standard treatment protocol involves daily sessions, typically five days a week, for approximately four to six weeks. Each session is brief, lasting around 20-40 minutes, making it feasible to integrate TMS into a busy schedule.
Throughout the course of treatment, our team at 354 Downs Blvd Suite 109 provides ongoing communication and support. We believe in keeping patients informed and involved in their treatment journey.
