If you’ve struggled with depression and haven’t found relief from traditional antidepressants—or experienced unpleasant side effects—it might be time to consider Accelerated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). This innovative therapy offers a faster, more effective solution to combat depression, helping you feel better quickly and with minimal disruption to your daily life.
Accelerated TMS is a breakthrough treatment for treatment-resistant depression (TRD), designed for individuals who haven’t found relief from conventional medication. It works by using magnetic pulses to stimulate areas of the brain responsible for mood regulation, helping to restore balance and reduce depressive symptoms.
Accelerated TMS is based on the Stanford Accelerated Intelligent Neuromodulation Therapy™ (SAINT), an FDA-cleared accelerated TMS protocol designed for major depressive disorder.
The SAINT trial conducted by Stanford University in October 2021 revealed groundbreaking results in the treatment of treatment-resistant depression (TRD). The trial demonstrated that nearly 80% of participants achieved remission from their depression after undergoing theta burst stimulation with the MagVenture TMS device. Incredibly, clinical improvement was noticeable in as little as 2.3 days.
Following the success of this trial, the FDA approved the protocol used in the study as a treatment for treatment-resistant depression (TRD) in September 2022, including patients who had previously failed traditional TMS therapy.
Unlike traditional TMS, which requires about 6 weeks of treatment, Accelerated TMS condenses the process into just 1 week, with 8-10 treatments per day. Each treatment lasts about 9 minutes, followed by a 50-minute break, giving you the flexibility to relax or engage in other activities between treatments.
Despite the rapid pace, Accelerated TMS has minimal to no side effects. Most patients feel no discomfort after each treatment and resume their everyday activities immediately. The treatment provides a quicker, more efficient route to mental wellness, without the long waits and disruptions of traditional therapies.
If you’re ready to take control of your depression and experience faster, more effective relief, Accelerated TMS may be the solution you’ve been waiting for. Say goodbye to the slow pace of traditional treatments and start your journey to mental wellness today.
