Frequently Asked Questions
What is TMS therapy and how does it work at Brain Health Solutions?
TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate nerve cells in the brain. At Brain Health Solutions, we use MagVenture and SAINT Protocol Setup technology to precisely target the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), the brain region associated with mood regulation. Unlike medications, TMS does not circulate through the bloodstream, so patients experience minimal to no systemic side effects. A typical treatment course involves 36 sessions over 6-9 weeks, with each session lasting approximately 19-20 minutes.
Does Brain Health Solutions accept my insurance for TMS therapy?
We recommend contacting Brain Health Solutions directly to discuss insurance coverage. Our administrative team can verify your benefits and assist with prior authorization. Most major insurance plans cover TMS therapy for treatment-resistant depression.
What should I expect during my first TMS session in Costa Mesa?
Your first TMS session at Brain Health Solutions begins with the treatment team determining your motor threshold, which calibrates the magnetic pulse intensity to your individual brain. You will be seated comfortably in a treatment chair while a coil is positioned against your head. You may feel a tapping sensation on your scalp during treatment. Sessions typically last 19-20 minutes, and you can return to normal activities immediately afterward, including driving. There is no anesthesia or sedation required. Most patients describe the experience as comfortable and use the time to relax, read, or listen to music.
How quickly will I see results from TMS therapy?
Individual response times vary, but many patients at Brain Health Solutions begin noticing improvements in mood, energy, and sleep within the first 2-3 weeks of treatment. The full course of treatment typically spans 36 sessions over 6-9 weeks. Clinical studies show that approximately 50-60% of patients with treatment-resistant depression achieve meaningful improvement, and about one-third experience complete remission. Our clinical team monitors your progress throughout treatment and can adjust protocols as needed.
Are there any side effects of TMS treatment?
TMS therapy is one of the safest treatments available for depression. The most common side effect is mild scalp discomfort or a tapping sensation at the treatment site during sessions, which typically diminishes after the first few treatments. Unlike antidepressant medications, TMS does not cause weight gain, sexual dysfunction, nausea, or drowsiness. There is no recovery time needed after sessions. The most serious but rare risk is seizure, occurring in less than 0.1% of patients. Our clinical team at Brain Health Solutions conducts thorough screening to minimize any risks.
How much does TMS therapy cost at Brain Health Solutions?
TMS therapy costs vary based on insurance coverage, treatment protocol, and session count. Contact Brain Health Solutions for pricing details. Our administrative team provides complimentary insurance verification and can give you a clear picture of your expected costs before treatment begins.
Who is a good candidate for TMS therapy?
TMS therapy at Brain Health Solutions is ideal for adults who have been diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder and have not achieved adequate relief from at least one antidepressant medication. You may also be a candidate if you experience intolerable side effects from medications. TMS is not recommended for patients with metallic implants in or near the head (excluding dental fillings), or those with a history of seizures. During your initial consultation, our clinical team will review your complete medical and psychiatric history to determine if TMS is appropriate for you.
Can TMS help with OCD at Brain Health Solutions?
Yes. TMS has been FDA-cleared for OCD treatment since 2018, targeting brain regions involved in compulsive behaviors. At Brain Health Solutions, we offer specialized OCD protocols that have shown significant symptom reduction in clinical trials. Treatment typically involves sessions 5 days per week for 6 weeks.
What is SAINT?
