You might be wondering how and why NeuroStar TMS therapy is different from medication, therapy, or other mental health treatments. Here, we cover why NeuroStar TMS is different vs other treatments and how it can help our qualifying patients at The TMS Center of New Jersey with depression, anxious depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorder.
If you have depressive or anxious symptoms and want personalized medical advice for your mental health, speak to one of our specialists to find out whether NeuroStar TMS might be right for you.
Doctors strongly recommend and support NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy for qualifying patients. Here are just a few reasons why it can be an excellent treatment for your mental health challenges.
FDA-cleared NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy is non-surgical and non-invasive, making it a very safe treatment option. It is also entirely non-medication-based. This means that it is completely free of systemic side effects that are common with medications, so it is a good option for patients who struggle with medications or find themselves switching between medications.
The non-surgical nature of NeuroStar means our patients at the TMS Center of New Jersey do not have to worry about any of the drawbacks of surgery, including sedation, anesthesia, residual scarring, or bruising. Again, this underscores the safety of this treatment.
Another difference between NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy and other treatments is that it physically affects your mental health symptoms at their source—your brain. Unlike therapy or cognitive behavioral therapy, NeuroStar improves brain function at a biological level, frequently alleviating your symptoms. It does this with the use of gentle but powerful electromagnetic waves, which stimulate your brain cells.
For many patients, the NeuroStar treatment process is very comfortable. During your treatment, you can relax, read, or scroll on your phone as our TMS technician administers the NeuroStar treatment.
NeuroStar TMS therapy can also be a highly convenient alternative to other mental health treatments. At The TMS Center of New Jersey, our specialists offer our patients a customized treatment program that takes place over seven weeks, with five 19-minute sessions per week. Treatments do not require any downtime or post-treatment monitoring, so patients, including younger patients with school or university commitments, can easily incorporate their NeuroStar sessions into their lives. Even patients with the busiest of schedules can manage their NeuroStar treatment program.
Finally, many leading insurance providers cover NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy, including:
NeuroStar offers additional financial support options for qualifying patients, and specialists could assist in navigating available financial resources.
NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy offers a variety of benefits that can make it a superior treatment option for your mental health challenges. These include convenience, safety, treatment delivery method, and insurance coverage. These reasons, and many others, are why NeuroStar TMS is different, why it stands out from competing mental health treatments, and why we proudly offer it to our patients at The TMS Center of New Jersey.
