What Is Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation?
Tms is a non-invasive neuromodulation procedure that uses focused magnetic fields to stimulate specific areas of the cerebral cortex. This process modulates neuronal activity in brain regions associated with mood and affective processing. The therapy does not require anesthesia or involve systemic medication, making it a distinct option for mental health treatment.
