Smart TMS - Patient Story

Freddie tells how TMS treatment helped him overcome long-term and severe depression.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, non-medication based treatment, approved by NICE for treatment of depression. It can also treat a range of addiction problems and other mental health conditions.

Freddie reminds me a bit of Jimmy Carr. Happy for him that it worked for him. I'm 32 and have also had depression for 10+ years. Going to get this treatment too in August 🤞

It’s interesting to me that while researching this I’ve learned that they have discovered that the brain can actually be damaged by trauma and that trauma is or can be visible on a MRI and they are using MRIs as a mapping tool to help them target the areas of the persons brain receiving TMS to get the most optimal results. Bc of this on a Dr. interviewed about the subject states he wanted to rename PTSD PTSI(injury) bc he does not see it as a brain disorder but literally views it as a trauma induced injury to the brain.

A portable Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy unit which you can use at home and not put on the brain would seem a more sensible approach and cheaper...

[@adroninggoodtime]

Sure let me know when you invent it

[@SmarttmsUk]

Freddie's right, there is no 'at home' treatment option as yet and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is not suitable for treating yourself. Smart TMS only offer treatments in our clinics, where they can be carried out by trained staff.
