Yes, TMS therapy is considered a safe and FDA-cleared treatment for depression.

NeuroStar TMS Therapy has been extensively studied and used over 7.4 million times in more than 200,000 patients. Treatments are delivered using precise magnetic pulses that target specific brain areas involved in mood regulation. When performed by trained medical professionals, TMS is well tolerated and requires no anesthesia or sedation.

Most patients say TMS feels like a light tapping sensation on the scalp.

The sensation usually becomes more comfortable after the first few sessions. Patients remain awake during treatment and can return to normal activities immediately afterward. Because it is non-invasive, there is no recovery time required.

Most NeuroStar TMS sessions take about 20 minutes.

Patients typically receive treatment five days per week for several weeks, depending on their treatment plan. Sessions are performed in our clinic, and patients can return to work or daily activities right afterward. Your provider will monitor your progress throughout treatment.

Some patients begin noticing improvement within a few weeks of starting TMS treatment.

For others, changes may occur gradually over the course of the full treatment series. Your provider will monitor your response and adjust your care plan if needed. Many patients experience meaningful improvements in mood and daily functioning.

Yes, many major insurance plans cover TMS therapy for depression.

Our clinic accepts several major insurance providers, including Medicare, UnitedHealthcare, Oscar, Aetna, and Florida Blue. Coverage depends on your individual plan and medical criteria, and our team can help verify your benefits before treatment begins. For more details about coverage, visit our insurance page.

Without insurance, a full course of TMS therapy typically costs between $6,000 and $15,000.

However, most patients do not pay the full amount because insurance often covers the majority of the treatment. When covered, out-of-pocket costs may only be standard co-pays depending on the plan. Our team can review your coverage and explain expected costs before starting treatment.

No, most patients continue taking their medications during TMS treatment.

Your provider will review your current medications and create a personalized treatment plan. TMS can safely be used alongside medication management when appropriate. Many patients receive TMS as part of a comprehensive mental health care plan.

Yes, TMS is often combined with other mental health treatments.

Many patients continue medication management or psychotherapy while receiving TMS. Our clinic offers integrated psychiatric care to support patients throughout their treatment. Combining treatments can sometimes improve overall outcomes.

No, TMS therapy does not cause weight gain or sedation.

Unlike many antidepressants, TMS is not associated with sexual side effects, weight changes, or daily medication use. TMS also does not cause cognitive side effects or memory problems that may occur with other treatments. Most patients tolerate treatment very well.

TMS may not be appropriate for people with certain metal implants or medical conditions.

Individuals with metal or electronic implants in or near the head, such as cochlear implants or certain aneurysm clips, may not be candidates due to the magnetic field used during treatment. Patients with a history of seizure disorders may also require additional evaluation. Our providers perform careful screening to ensure treatment safety.

Many patients experience relief from depression symptoms for six months to a year or longer after completing NeuroStar TMS therapy.

NeuroStar is the only TMS treatment clinically proven to remain effective through 12 months in adults with treatment-resistant depression (TRD). A typical treatment course involves daily 20-minute sessions, five days per week, for about six weeks, which is usually around 36 sessions. In a recent study, 83% of patients experienced improvement in depression symptoms and 62% achieved symptom remission. If symptoms return later, some patients benefit from occasional maintenance or “tune-up” sessions to help extend results.
