NeuroStar Advanced Therapy TMS in Los Angeles: A Proven Treatment for Clinical Depression and Anxiety
At Westwood Minds, we strive to treat the whole patient — not just their symptoms. Our Los Angeles clinic offers transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), a safe, effective, non-invasive treatment for clinical depression and anxiety.
Transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy uses short pulses of magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the area of the brain thought to control mood. It is sometimes referred to as rTMS which stands for repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation. TMS patients receiving TMS Therapy remain awake and alert during the treatment.
NeuroStar Advanced Therapy TMS is an outpatient procedure available to Los Angeles and the surrounding communities. The typical depression treatment course consists of at least 5 depression treatments per week over a 4-6 week period for 20-30 depression treatments. Each depression treatment session lasts approximately 19-37 minutes, depending on what the doctor determines is the correct protocol. NeuroStar Advanced Therapy TMS is:
- Non-invasive, meaning that it does not involve surgery. It does not require any anesthesia or sedation, as the patient remains awake and alert during the treatment.
- Non-systemic, meaning that it is not taken by mouth and does not circulate in the bloodstream throughout the body.
- FDA cleared for patients who have not benefited from prior antidepressant treatment.
If you’ve tried traditional medications and therapy and they have proven to be ineffective, NeuroStar Advanced Therapy TMS might be right for you. Rest-assured, NeuroStar Advanced Therapy TMS is non-invasive, FDA-approved. Contact TMS Westwood Minds to learn more about how we can help you take back your mental health. We accept patients from the nearby communities of Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Culver City, Santa Monica, West Hollywood, Marina Del Rey, Playa Del Rey and the surrounding area.
