Magnetic treatment for depression Melbourne offers Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) as part of its range of mental health treatments. TMS is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain, which can improve symptoms of depression and other mental health conditions. This treatment is particularly useful for patients who have not responded to traditional therapies such as medication and psychotherapy.
TMS is a procedure during which magnetic fields are used to stimulate the area of the brain which is under functioning in depression. Magnetic energy generated by a coil placed on the head is used to stimulate a small area on the surface of the brain
