What To Expect

Knowing what TMS feels like and how to prepare helps reduce anxiety and improves your treatment experience.

During Treatment: - You sit in a comfortable chair - Electromagnetic coil positioned against your head - Feel tapping sensation on scalp with each pulse - Hear rhythmic clicking sounds (earplugs provided) - Remain fully awake and alert - Can talk to technician if needed

Physical Sensations: - Tapping or pecking feeling at coil site - Possible facial muscle twitching - Mild pressure sensation - Usually painless (98% of patients)

After Session: - Resume normal activities immediately - Drive yourself home - Return to work - Exercise as usual

Practical Tips: - Wear comfortable clothing - Remove earrings/headbands - Bring something to listen to (if clinic allows) - Schedule appointments that fit your routine

Most patients find TMS much easier than anticipated.
