The Cons of NeuroStar TMS Therapy

NeuroStar has many more pros than cons for our patients overall.

NeuroStar is highly regarded by physicians because it has minimal drawbacks compared to treatments like medication. Most patients complete their NeuroStar treatment program without experiencing any adverse side effects. However, a small percentage of patients may experience mild, temporary issues such as headaches, lightheadedness, tingling, muscle spasms, or scalp discomfort. These side effects are well tolerated, especially compared to the harsh side effects of medications.

These minor, temporary side effects typically occur only during the first few weeks, tend to resolve with continued treatment, and can be managed well with over-the-counter pain relievers. Overall, the side effects of NeuroStar are negligible and do not disrupt daily life.

NeuroStar has some eligibility restrictions. To ensure you are a good candidate for this program, scheduling a consultation with The TMS Center of New Jersey is important. If NeuroStar is not right for you, we can help you discover another treatment that may better suit your needs.

Insurance coverage for NeuroStar may also have restrictions for some patients. For example, many providers will only cover NeuroStar for people whose depressive and anxious symptoms were not relieved after trying a certain number of medications. This is not a barrier for most patients because they turn to NeuroStar when they do not experience the benefits of medication.
