Find Out If NeuroStar® Is Right For You
If you, like many others, are suffering from depression, anxious depression, or obsessive-compulsive disorder, you know how frustrating it can be to find treatments that relieve your symptoms and have manageable side effects. If you have been unable to find relief from medication therapy, managing your symptoms can feel especially exhausting.
Fortunately, with NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy in Santa Monica, you have a drug-free and non-invasive treatment option that gets right to the source of your depression symptoms.
NeuroStar TMS Therapy is considered the best in class TMS, or Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation system, and has been FDA-cleared for the treatment of adults with Major Depressive Disorder, Anxious Depression, and as an adjunct therapy for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. TMS therapy uses magnetic pulses to activate regions of the brain associated with mood regulation.
TMS Therapy treats depression and other psychiatric conditions by reviving otherwise dormant neurons and stimulating the production of new neural networks in the regions of the brain associated with mood regulation and other psychological functions. By directly stimulating the brain, TMS side-steps the need for medications and thus avoids the side effects of many medications, including nausea, fatigue, weight gain, sexual dysfunction, and more.
A full course of NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy at our Santa Monica office involves a total of 36 sessions. One session of TMS Therapy lasts around 20 minutes, and we strongly encourage patients to return for treatment at least 5 times per week.
NeuroStar Advanced TMS Therapy is an effective treatment for adults with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and Major Depressive Disorder with Anxiety (otherwise known as Anxious Depression), especially among those who had little symptom relief following courses of medication therapy. A study has shown that 83% of patients experience meaningful relief from symptoms following a full course of therapy, and 62% of patients experience full remission (Sackeim HA, et al. (2020). J Affect Disord, 277:65 74. Based on a real-world, retrospective study using CGI-S and a sample size of 615 patients).
NeuroStar is also effective for treating OCD when used in conjunction with medication or therapy. Studies suggest that 30–50% of patients with treatment-resistant OCD experience a significant reduction in symptoms after combining existing therapy with TMS. You can feel confident about the likelihood of symptom relief with NeuroStar TMS Therapy here in Santa Monica.
At our Santa Monica office, we make sure NeuroStar TMS Advanced Therapy is well-tolerated by our patients. Some patients do experience mild pain and discomfort at the location of magnetic stimulation. This discomfort is generally temporary and resolves after the first week of treatment. Other side effects might include a tingling sensation or mild headache, which can be treated with over-the-counter painkillers if needed. Other side effects may include facial twitches, which also resolve quickly following a TMS session.
Most insurance companies, including Medicare and Medi-Cal, cover TMS therapy for the treatment of Major Depressive Disorder and Anxious Depression. However, it is important to understand what your insurance covers and the necessary eligibility criteria to receive coverage from your particular insurance. For example, while some insurers will cover TMS therapy in Santa Monica with an official diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder, other insurance companies may require you to have attempted two courses of antidepressants with no relief of symptoms prior to approving coverage for NeuroStar TMS therapy.
Suffering from depression is exhausting enough without having to find an effective treatment option without the negative side effects of medication. If you suffer from Major Depressive Disorder, NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy in Santa Monica might be a solution to finding meaningful relief from your depression symptoms.
