Intial Assessment

During the first meeting, your consultant will take a full history and advise you on whether TMS would be an effective treatment for your specific symptoms. Your specialist will also discuss the treatment durations, and how many sessions will be needed.

Treatment Session

One of the benefits of rTMS treatments is that there is no need for patients to make any preparations beforehand. Once you are settled in a comfortable, reclining chair, a magnetic plate will be secured just above your scalp. After carefully placing the plate to target the desired area, the machine will be turned on. Patients will remain awake and alert for the entire duration of the treatment. Sessions usually last between 20 and 30 minutes, depending on the type of treatment. The length of your session will be discussed during the initial consultation.

After The Session

There is no recovery period after a rTMS session, and you can resume your daily activities immediately. Some patients may feel mild scalp irritation or tingling after their first session, but this usually goes away on subsequent visits.
