TMS of Tennessee: Advanced NeuroStar TMS Therapy at 354 Downs Blvd Suite 109, Franklin, TN
Welcome to TMS of Tennessee, your dedicated center for advanced Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy located at 354 Downs Blvd Suite 109, Franklin, TN 37064. We specialize in providing highly effective, non-invasive treatment options for individuals seeking relief from conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD) and anxiety disorders, utilizing the FDA-approved NeuroStar® TMS Therapy system.
Understanding NeuroStar TMS Therapy
NeuroStar TMS Therapy is a breakthrough treatment designed for patients with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) and other conditions. Unlike traditional antidepressant medications, which rely on systemic ingestion and can have unwanted side effects, NeuroStar TMS is completely non-invasive and targets specific areas of the brain responsible for mood regulation.
How NeuroStar TMS Works
Our state-of-the-art NeuroStar device uses focused magnetic pulses to gently stimulate nerve cells in the brain's prefrontal cortex. This targeted stimulation helps to restore balanced brain activity patterns, which can be disrupted in conditions like depression and anxiety. The treatment is delivered through a comfortable coil placed gently against the patient's head, requiring no surgery, anesthesia, or electrical current.
Benefits of Choosing TMS of Tennessee
At our Franklin location, we are committed to delivering a high standard of care tailored to your specific needs:
• Non-Invasive & Well-Tolerated: No surgery, anesthesia, or implanted devices are required. Most patients find the gentle tapping sensation during treatment to be comfortable.
• No Systemic Side Effects: Since the magnetic pulses only affect the brain, they spare the rest of the body. This means no common medication side effects like weight gain, sexual dysfunction, or gastrointestinal issues.
• Outpatient Treatment: Our sessions are conducted on an outpatient basis, allowing you to return to your daily activities immediately after each treatment.
• Evidence-Based & FDA-Cleared: NeuroStar TMS Therapy has been extensively studied and is the only TMS device cleared by the FDA for treating major depressive disorder.
Our Treatment Process
Your journey with us begins with a comprehensive evaluation to determine if you are a suitable candidate for NeuroStar TMS Therapy. This includes a thorough assessment of your medical history, current symptoms, and previous treatment responses.
If TMS is deemed appropriate, our experienced clinicians will customize the treatment protocol based on your specific condition and brain anatomy. Each session typically lasts about 20-45 minutes and is performed while you comfortably sit in a chair.
Most patients begin to notice improvements in their symptoms within the first few weeks of consistent treatment, although the full course of treatment usually involves daily sessions over a period of several weeks.
