Step 3.

Starting TMS Treatment

Starting TMS Sessions.

On the first day, your motor threshold and treatment intensity will be determined. Objective measurements of your condition will be carried out by our neuroscientist.

You are then ready to start your first session of TMS and PBM therapy. This combined approach not only stimulates and balances brain activity (TMS) but also supports cellular energy production and reduces inflammation (PBM), helping to optimise your results.

A typical TMS session lasts about 20 minutes, and PBM therapy is usually delivered alongside your TMS session. The exact session length depends on the condition being treated and the protocol used.

How long is it before benefits from TMS are observed?

In repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) therapy, patients typically undergo 20 to 30 sessions to maximise therapeutic benefits for their specific condition. Clinical trials reveal that within four weeks, half of the patients experience significant symptom relief, with one-third achieving complete remission by the sixth week. 

Throughout TMS treatment, our Neuroscientist consistently reassesses your condition and monitors treatment response. This includes regular evaluations of dose levels and coil positioning to optimise the therapeutic intervention’s efficacy. This meticulous approach ensures not only the appropriateness of the treatment but also its ongoing effectiveness in addressing your unique neural dynamics.
