Understanding Smoking Cessation Treatment with TMS in Lansing
The insula plays a key role in addiction cravings and interoceptive awareness. Deep TMS targeting the bilateral insula disrupts craving circuits, reducing the urge to smoke.
TMS for smoking cessation has been FDA-cleared since 2020, making it a well-established treatment option. In Lansing, Michigan, 1 verified clinics offer this treatment with insurance coverage available through most major plans.
How TMS Treats Smoking Cessation — The Science
TMS therapy targets the bilateral insula and prefrontal cortex using BrainsWay Deep TMS with H4 coil. During each session, a magnetic coil placed against your scalp delivers focused pulses that stimulate neurons in this region. Over the course of treatment, this repeated stimulation promotes neuroplasticity — the brain's ability to form new neural connections and restore healthy patterns of activity.
