Common Questions About TMS Therapy in Lynn MA

The TMS Therapy system uses magnetic pulses to generate intense, fast fields comparable to those generated by MRI machines. The treatment coil is positioned on the head over the left prefrontal cortex, which regulates mood and therefore is the location where these fields are concentrated.

The treatment coil only reaches 2-3cm into your brain; the waves don’t reach it at all. These magnets produce minuscule electrical currents when they move in, which activate this part of your brain and improve mood without harming you in any way.
