TMS of the Carolinas - Raleigh Center
Welcome to TMS of the Carolinas, your dedicated center for advanced Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy located at 7780 Brier Creek Pkwy Ste 300, Raleigh, NC 27617. We specialize in providing non-invasive, cutting-edge treatment options designed to help individuals struggling with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) and other specific conditions. Our state-of-the-art facility in Raleigh is committed to offering compassionate care and effective solutions for our local patients seeking relief through TMS.
TMS therapy is a breakthrough treatment that uses magnetic fields to gently stimulate nerve cells in the brain's prefrontal cortex, an area often underactive in individuals experiencing depression. Unlike traditional antidepressant medications, TMS does not require ingesting drugs, making it an appealing option for many. At our Raleigh location, we utilize this advanced technology to target symptoms directly, aiming to improve mood, energy levels, and overall quality of life for our patients.
Our team at TMS of the Carolinas - Raleigh is composed of experienced and compassionate professionals, including licensed psychiatrists, clinical neuropsychologists, registered nurses, and trained TMS technicians. We are dedicated to providing a personalized treatment experience. Before beginning TMS therapy, our team conducts a thorough evaluation to determine if TMS is an appropriate treatment option for you. This involves a detailed assessment of your medical history, current symptoms, and previous treatment responses.
The TMS procedure itself is typically well-tolerated and performed on an outpatient basis. During a session, you will be comfortably seated in a chair, and the TMS device will be positioned against your head. The device generates brief magnetic pulses that stimulate specific areas of your brain. Our team at the Raleigh center will guide you through the process, ensuring your comfort and safety throughout each session. Most patients find the sensation described as a tapping or clicking feeling on the scalp.
We understand that choosing a new treatment path requires careful consideration. Our priority at TMS of the Carolinas - Raleigh is to provide clear information and support every step of the way. We believe in building strong patient-provider relationships based on trust and open communication. Our goal is to empower our patients with knowledge and hope, working collaboratively to develop a treatment plan tailored to their unique needs and circumstances.
